18 May 2019 Subscribers: 24,000 Dublin Event Guide (for Free Events) No. 604 Dear Dublin Event Guide Follower!! Because so much is happening in Dublin, here is another Dublin Event Guide (for Free Events) and with a bit of luck, there will even be a third one in a row next week. ;-) LOTS of festivals are happening this week, from Gospel Music via Prawns and Drawing to Science or Pets, there is definitely something for everyone!! It is really a super busy weekend!:-O What you have in front of you is the simplified (new) Dublin Event Guide (for Free Events). It is a long list with event headlines and then links so that you can check out the details yourself. I hope it works for you. Because I am sending more newsletters now again, I will ask you for your help again and it is super simple: Just go to www.DublinEventGuide.com and click on the ad banner that is at the very top of the page! If you don’t see an ad banner there, please turn your Ad Blocker off and then do the clicking. ;-) It is just a few cents that I will get, but if enough people click on it, it might do the job. 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. ;-) Saturday Events (18 May) Saturday is National Drawing Day and there is also the popular Mind Body Experience Exhibition in the RDS and the Dublin Prawn Festival happening (they realised that the St. Patrick’s Day weekend is a bad choice of a weekend for this great event in Howth). + Friends of Medieval Dublin Symposium 09:30-16:30 Emmet Theatre, Arts Building, Trinity College, Dublin 2  www.facebook.com/events/337750580264451/ ++ Culture Date with Dublin 8 10:00-17:00 Dublin 8 www.facebook.com/events/362115634408637/ ++ National Drawing Day 10:00-16:00 National Gallery, Merrion Square, Dublin 2 www.facebook.com/events/416028185620938/ ++ Dublin Mind Body Experience 10:00-20:00 RDS, Dublin 4 www.facebook.com/events/287130805271492 + Viking Artefact Detective Game 10:00-12:00 Rosary Pastoral Centre, Our Lady of the Rosary Church, Harold’s Cross Road, Dublin 6W  www.facebook.com/events/2391703824408397/ (Tickets required) + Garden Bird Safari 10:00-11:30 National Botanic Gardens, Dublin 9 www.facebook.com/events/1551895718273681/ (Booking required) + National Drawing Day Workshops 11:00-16:00 (every hour) Farmleigh House, Phoenix Park www.facebook.com/events/2240496426200570/ + Cliche Vintage Kilo Clothes Sale 11:00-16:00 Academy Plaza Hotel, Findlater Place, Dublin 1 www.facebook.com/events/801201280265257/ (Admission: EUR 1) + Easy Treesie Trail Walk 11:00-11:45 St. Anne’s Park, Raheny, Dublin 5 www.facebook.com/events/393518257905410 (Tickets required) ++ Dublin Bay Prawn Festival 12:00-19:00 Howth Harbour www.facebook.com/events/2425724694322665/ + Dublin Nerd Cosplay Meetup 12:00-17:00 Merrion Square www.facebook.com/events/273917133488290/ + Origami Arts & Crafts Event  (Age 7-12) 13:00-17:00 The Square, Tallaght www.facebook.com/events/702993516804843/ + Sweet Vibes Flea Market 13:30-17:00 Lucky’s, 78 Meath Street, Dublin 8 www.facebook.com/events/1475305252611804/ + Raise The Roof Housing Rally – Protest 13:00-16:00 Parnell Square, Dublin 1 www.facebook.com/events/328297894510354/ + Global Citizen Award Ceremony 2019 13:45-16:30 Westin Hotel, Westmoreland Street, Dublin 2 www.facebook.com/events/2102094859909790/ (Tickets required) + Bee Spotting Workshop 14:00-16:00 St Enda’s Park, Grange Rd, Rathfarnham www.facebook.com/events/304635427134488/ (Tickets required) + National Drawing Day at PrintLab 14:00-16:30 National Print Museum www.facebook.com/events/328183374566045/ + Drawing Day 2019 at National Museum (Age 12+) 14:00-15:30 Collins Barracks www.museum.ie/Visit-Us/Events?id=4067 + Drawing Day: Megalithic Big Draw 14:§0-16:30 National Museum, Kildare Street, Dublin 2 www.museum.ie/Visit-Us/Events?id=4042 + Trad Music with Noel O’Farrell 19:00-21:00 Irish Whiskey Museum, 119 Grafton Street, Dublin 2 www.facebook.com/events/2337221652967507/ + Eurovision 2019 Viewing Party 20:00 Woolshed Baa & Grill, Parnell Street, Dublin 1 www.facebook.com/events/291608345077205/ Saturday + Sunday Markets + Temple Bar Food Market: Sat 10:00-16:30 on Meeting House Square  www.facebook.com/TempleBarFoodMarket/ + Honest2Goodness Market: Sat 09:00-15:00 in Dublin Ind.
