Cúirt International Festival of Literature
Note: Details below refer to the previous event. Updated information for this year will be published here as soon as it becomes available.
Cúirt invariably put together an interesting and varied programme and attract some very big names to Galway for this festival. It isn't in any way a stuffy literary crowd, it's a friendly event, accessible to everyone and with something to suit all literary tastes.
Previous years have seen luminaries such as Nobel Prize winners, J.M. Coetzee, Nadine Gordimer, Derek Walcott and Seamus Heaney visit Galway. Theatre and poetry are included in the programme, there will be workshops, readings, lectures and as is always the case with any Galway event a lively social scene.
