BlueFire Street Fest, Red Stables Festival of Food, BuzzFest, Car Free Day, People’s Art Exhibition
Hi all!
It was a GREAT night last night! Culture Night is always special and hopefully you got a chance to be part of it. Dublin was buzzing again, the weather was nearly perfect for it and the cultural events were great. I stayed out much too long, which means that I only started very late with this events list for the weekend and for that reason, I will have to send you a slightly shorter one this weekend.
But I also have to admit that last week’s support (or lack thereof) didn’t allow me to ride on a wave of good vibes either. So I was quite deflated last weekend if I am honest. Only 55 people spent the 30 seconds that it takes to support the Dublin Event Guide. I am ONLY asking for a click, nothing else. If well over 20,000 people see the events list and only 55 think it is worth supporting it, then it really brings you to the question “Why spend all the time every week if nobody wants it?”. Let’s see how this week works. It is super easy!
This is how it works:
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. ;-) If you click on the ad, I get between 5 and 30 cent. That is not much, but if enough people helped together, would 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!
