Peoples Photography, India Day, GAA All Ireland Final – Live Screening
Hi all!
August is coming to an end, schools are back open, autumn is starting tomorrow …and Christmas decorations are sold already again in a shop in Dublin. :-O
But one thing is consistent and continues throughout the year: There will always be free cultural events in Dublin! And this “Dublin Event Guide (for Free Events)” is helping you to find them. ;-)
I always find lots of free events, but I need your help to get them to you! Like an increasing number of media publications in the Internet, I have thought about putting the weekly events list behind a “pay wall” but I don’t really like the idea. I would prefer if EVERYONE has access to it, but that causes a little problem with funding the cost and that is where I need 30 seconds of your time and it won’t cost you cent to help!
Just go to www.DublinEventGuide.com and click on the rectangular ad that is shown at the very top of the page! If you don’t see an ad there, please turn your Ad Blocker off and refresh the page and then do the clicking. ;-) It is just a few cents that I will get, but if enough people click on it – and it only takes a few seconds! -, it might do the job to cover the cost for sending the Dublin Event Guide. Thanks! Some people have asked me for the Dublin Event Guide PayPal link for direct donations and here it is: www.paypal.me/DublinEventGuide
And here are some of this weekend’s free events. All events are sorted by start time, but watch out for the few events that have a “++” in front of them, the are particularly recommended. ;-) ALL events in this list are free, but some require booking!
