Preparations are well under way for Dublin’s fifth St Brigid’s bank holiday celebrations.<\/p>\n
This year’s programme will feature 120 events across the city from 30 January to 2 February, all dedicated to celebrating St Brigid’s Day, Imbolc and women’s contributions across Irish culture and society.<\/p>\n
Rising Irish star Muireann Bradley will be one of the festival’s headline acts.<\/p>\n
Two years on from her breakthrough appearance on Jools Holland’s Hootenanny show on the BBC, the Donegal musician told us she was looking forward to a busy 2026.<\/p>\n
