Fíon na Fíliochta (The Wine of Poetry)

Beidh léamh filíochta ar siúl Dé Domhnaigh seo chugainn i Séipéal Naomh Eoin i Lios Tuathail.

Cúirt na Féile will bring together some of the most innovative voices in Irish language poetry from around the country together for a special reading in St Johns Church. Recalling the famous gathering of Irish language poets in North Kerry in the 18th Century - Cúirt na Suadh - this event will showcase old dialects and new forms, from Corca Dhuibhne, Donegal and Listowel.

The poets attending include Dairena Ní Chinnéide, one of the most important poets writing today in the Irish language, alongside two budding newly published poets, Dubhán Ó Longáin and Siobhán Ní Dhomhnaill, as well as Listowel's very own Matt Ó Maonaigh. Séamus Barra Ó Súilleabháin will be acting as 'fear an tí' for the event.

Míle fáilte roimh chách.

You are invited to join us at the St. John 's Theatre & Arts Centre in Listowel at 4pm on Sunday 12 September 2021.

You are most welcome!

Seating will be limited so please book your seat in advance.
