About this event

Join us for a chat about ideas while having a pint. Meet new people, learn about new things and try something different. Topic: Ireland, the Home of Halloween and How It Was Celebrated.

Join Brinsley McNamara of Weird Ireland for a fascinating journey into the Irish origins of Halloween. Discover how the ancient festival began, how it was celebrated in Ireland through the centuries, and how traditions like costumes, bonfires, trick-or-treating and the Jack-o’-lantern evolved over time.

A spooky trip through Ireland’s strange, ancient and sometimes downright weird Halloween traditions.

After each talk there’s a live Q&A, drinks, conversation, and a chance to meet new people who are curious about the world.

Over 18s only.

Readers are advised to check with the organiser before relying on the details published here.
