About this event
We are once again hosting our annual science festival with a Celtic Halloween twist – Samhain agus Science. The festival brings together researchers from DIAS and around the world to make the scientific questions of our time and that of Celtic history relevant, accessible, and fun. Beginning Wednesday 22 October ‘Samhain agus Science’ will run until 06 November.
All events are free, geared for a general audience and will take place at 7pm in DIAS HQ, 10 Burlington Road, with one event (details to follow at a later date) at another location. Please book your places via the Eventbrite link.
Readers are advised to check with the organiser before relying on the details published here.
