Dublin Event Guide 963 – Normal Again Mud Island Community Garden Family Day, Five Lamps Arts Festival, Portobello Market, Dublin Learning City Festival

April 18th, 2026

Normal Again

Mud Island Community Garden Family Day, Five Lamps Arts Festival, Portobello Market, Dublin Learning City Festival

Hi!!

After a (slightly) chaotic spell, things seem to be settling down again in Dublin. The streets are moving again and a bit of normality has returned. Always nice when the city can just get on with things again.

Other than that, it’s one of those weeks without a big theme or headline moment. And that’s not a bad thing. Sometimes it’s enough that things are just … normal.

I’m still away for another while, so the Dublin Event Guide continues in a slightly shorter format. Next week it will be even more to the point because I need to drastically limit the hours I am working on the weekly newsletter next Friday night, but I will send at least a super short version.

Even in a quieter week, like this coming weekend and week, Dublin doesn’t stop. There are still plenty of events happening across the city if you’re willing to go looking for them. I do the looking for you, all you have to do is turn up to the events. ;-)

Let’s see what’s on this week.

If you have friends or family or colleagues that also enjoy cultural events in Dublin, let them know that they can sign up for the free weekly Dublin Event Guide newsletter at https://getthislink.com/DEGSignup

The working title for my video series on YouTube is the “Better You” videos, they are all about 5-7 minute long about how to better your life. Check out this video series if you want to achieve more in life, but are talking yourself out of it. https://www.youtube.com/@JoergSteegmueller

Donations in April:
EUR 179

(By the end of the month, this number has to reach or exceed EUR 200 to guarantee the continuation of the Dublin Event Guide.)

If the Dublin Event Guide helps you to find out about free events in Dublin, please help with a donation.

The counter here shows the current donation status. By the end of the month EUR 200 will be subtracted to pay the bills. If more money has been donated, the rest will be carried forward. If donations have stopped below the EUR 200, the missing amount will be carried over.

Last week the wonderful people that got us a huge step closer to the donation we need every month to cover the cost of the Dublin Event Guide were Valerie, Gerry, Emma, James, Joanne, Razvan-Florin, Mark and Orla. Thanks a lot! Everybody’s help is welcome and appreciated AND needed! We are nearly there. Just EUR 21 more to reach the monthly target.

Keeping the Dublin Event Guide going is quite low cost at just EUR 200 per month, but I need you to help getting the money together to cover the cost. Without that there will be no Dublin Event Guide!

With the above counter you know at all times where we stand and when donating is needed. Donations keep the Dublin Event Guide alive and all donors will also get some additional bonuses.

Here are some more details about donations:
Any amount is appreciated, but if you are looking for a recommendation, then I suggest a donation of 12 Euro per year. – That’s just one Euro per month and you get FOUR Dublin Event Guides for that Euro! If your funds are limited, but you still want to help, you can buy a virtual coffee for just EUR 4. All donations will be used in full for the Dublin Event Guide.

To donate, use the Dublin Event Guide Donation Page here: https://gturl.eu/DEGdonate. It is really easy to use and uses Stripe’s trustworthy payment processing. You can even sign up for a yearly subscription on the donation page! Yearly subscriptions will give some important financial stability and reliability to the Dublin Event Guide and are therefore very much appreciated! (Look for the RED subscription buttons at the bottom of the Donation Page.)

In case the donation page doesn’t work for you, the old links are here: You can donate via http://www.paypal.me/DublinEventGuide or for Revolut users among you, just use @joergbrb or now also https://revolut.me/joergbrb
(If possible, please send your full name and e-mail address as a message with the payment via PayPal or Revolut so that I can tell you about bonuses for donors when available.)

To buy one or two or even three virtual coffees for the Dublin Event Guide, come to the “Buy Me a Coffee” page here https://www.buymeacoffee.com/DublinEventG

And there is one other way to help and it is even free: If you come to http://www.DublinEventGuide.com and check out some of the ads and click on the ones that you find interesting, that also helps with a few cent! ?

Thank you!!

+++ Dublin Learning City Festival
The Dublin Learning City Festival from 22-25 April (Wednesday – Saturday) is open to everyone and this year there is a focus on Connecting with one another, Creating meaningful learning communities through these connections, and Changing our communities in a positive way through encouraging lifelong learning. Talks, lectures and classes are all free and are online or in person. The website at https://dublinlearningcity.ie/festival/whats-on-all-events/ lists all events.

+++ Five Lamps Arts Festival
The Five Lamps Arts Festival, named after the landmark Five Lamps at the junction of Amiens Street with North Strand Road and Portland Row and Seville Place and Killarney Street, is taking place from Saturday 11 April until Sunday 19 April. It is a festival in the North Strand Road area with lots of events. The majority of events are not free, but there are free events and I have listed a few in the listings above. All events can be found at https://fivelampsarts.ie/events/

+++ One Dublin One Book: Christine Falls by John Banville
April is the month of “One Dublin One Book”. Dublin City Libraries and Dublin UNESCO City of Literature are selecting one book every year that they suggest everyone should read in April. This year the book is “Christine Falls” by John Banville, a crime fiction book.
Every year there are lots of events in connection with the book and you will find all events at http://www.onedublinonebook.ie/

There are SEVEN events this week, but only one made it in this Dublin Event Guide, because the other six are booked out already! Check out the website and book as early as possible.

+++ Dublin City Council Culture Company
Every week, the Dublin City Council Culture Company organises cultural events in venues in Dublin. They are events in addition to the normal events in museums, galleries and other venues. All events are free, but access is by registration only. And these events are POPULAR!! So when I get to checking them out on the Friday before they take place, the most interesting ones are usually already booked out. If you are interested, check them out here https://cultureclubdublin.ticketsolve.com/ticketbooth/shows 

+++ LEARN A NEW SKILL WITH ONLINE COURSES
Is there ever a wrong time for learning a new skill or enhancing what you are already interested in? Maybe it is a language or an instrument or some technical skills? Or something completely different? Nearly every subject is there! Check out Udemy via the link below, they have thousands of courses and there is good chance that what you are looking for is available. Nearly all the courses are REALLY affordable!
The lowest price most of the time is EUR 12.99. Sometimes it even goes down further to EUR 9.99 and when that happens (about once or twice a year), I will tell you. But even 12.99 is definitely a good price for what you get! – Check out the website at https://www.getthislink.com/Udemy22 And if you buy through that link, you also help the Dublin Event Guide! :-)

+++ IKEA Crafting / Music / Cooking Workshops
Ikea in Ballymun runs a variety of crafting, music and cooking workshops it is always worh checking out. The workshops are free and usually go for 45 minutes. They are always for children, but the age is often not fixed. There are specific Toddler and baby workshops at times as well. Check them out on https://www.ikea.com/ie/en/stores/events/ikea-ballymun/

+++ Some more events:

Find Library events here https://www.dublincity.ie/events and Trinity College Events here https://www.tcd.ie/news_events/events/?day=18&month=03&year=2024&search=week
