Events ProgrammeJune – December
2014
Welcome...
I am delighted to see the varied programme of events that are planned for the remainder of 2014. There are plenty to choose from with all ages catered for. The range of events includes sports, theatre, festivals, family entertainment, dance, culture, markets and literature.
There are returning favourites such as the Rose Festival in St Anne’s Park, Bram Stoker Festival, Culture Night and Christmas celebrations. Events play an important role in the cultural and economic development of the City as well as ongoing development of Dublin as a tourism destination.
Dublin City Council is proud to be associated with the variety of events that are held in Dublin on an annual basis and will continue to work with all our partners to ensure that the programme contains variety and diversity and that there are opportunities for everyone to enjoy the entertainment, fun, and celebrations of the City in a family-friendly, inclusive and safe environment.
I would like to take this opportunity to extend my sincere thanks to the event organisers, city business organisations, statutory agencies, community groups and of course to the residents of Dublin and visitors alike who attend and participate in these events year after year to bring excitement and vibrancy to Dublin.
Lord Mayor of Dublin Christy Burke
