If you're looking for something to do this week with the kids that's a little different from the hustle and bustle of St Patrick's Day, check out The Making of Mollie!
"The Ark presents a bold new adaption for children aged 8+ by author Anna Carey of her first historical novel, The Making of Mollie."
In 1912 Dublin, 14-year-old Mollie Carberry’s life is pretty boring. That is, until she discovers that her older sister Phyllis is a secret suffragette! Mollie starts to realise just how unfair the world can be - and she wants to do something about it. When Mollie and her friend Nora get involved in the movement, they must face an important question: just how far should a girl go for her beliefs?
This charming and witty new play invites you to step into a very different time and join Mollie as she begins her journey to find her place in the world.

There are a few stages and outdoor areas in the Festival Quarter and The Deadlians will be closing the Rí Rá Stage on the 17th March!
"The Deadlians have written and are writing many great songs in an Irish rock 'n' roll idiom.
A unique blend of Cajun/Sliabh luacra fiddle with infectious lyrics, backed by baritone guitar, synth, bass and drums, a distinct Motorhead Hawkwind sound penetrates the audience."
Ok so we love food, and if there's anything to do on St Patrick's Day is eat all of the amazing Irish cuisine 🤤!
"Nestled in the historic heart of Dublin at the National Museum of Ireland - Collins Barracks, St. Patrick's Festival has unveiled a brand new food experience as part of Festival Quarter 2024.
'Bia Mall', playfully translating to 'Slow Food' in Irish, is a testament to Ireland's rich culinary heritage, and a showcase of the finest Irish artisan food producers, curated by Irish food writer Ali Dunworth. Each stall and corner of Bia Mall is carefully curated to provide an exceptional taste of Ireland, inviting visitors from around the globe to indulge in the authentic flavours of the Emerald Island."
