Limerick Events Guide – 13th-19th May
Every week when I’m putting together the Limerick Events Guide, I’m constantly impressed by the people who give up their time and energy to organise events in this city. These are people who hear people say there’s nothing going on and instead of joining the complain, they go out and do something about it. So this week I’d like to pay tribute to each of these legends.

Pigtown Listings – 27th July to 2nd August
Updated 29/7/2020 I spoke be starting this week’s Pigtown Listings by talking how amazing the Live at the Drive-In gigs were. Unfortunately, this is not the case. The events sector has been hit hard by COVID-19 and will continue to struggle for some time to come. If you can at all, log on to www.songsfromanemptyroom.com and make a donation to support the crews that make events happen. It’s a somewhat quieter week this week but there are still a few events going on. All Week UL and the Limerick PPN are hosting a special consultation on the Limerick Directly Elected Continue Reading
Pigtown Listings – 20th to 26th July
Update 21/7/20 – since publishing this week’s listings, we have since heard the sad news that the Live at the Drive-In gigs have been cancelled due to changes to the Covid-19 restrictions. This is devastating news for Dolans and all those who were due to work at the gigs. With this in mind, we would strongly encourage you to support the Songs From Another Room show on Saturday in aid of Minding Creative Minds and Association of Irish Stage Technications (AIST) Hardship Fund. More details below The pubs might not be opening after all but there’s still lots going in Continue Reading
