Ireland, the Home of Halloween and How It Was Celebrated.
Join Brinsley McNamara of Weird Ireland for a fascinating journey into the Irish origins of Halloween. Discover how the ancient festival began, how it was celebrated in Ireland through the centuries, and how traditions like costumes, bonfires, trick-or-treating and the Jack-o’-lantern evolved over time.
A spooky trip through Ireland’s strange, ancient and sometimes downright weird Halloween traditions.
Something different to do in Ireland?
Come spend an evening in the pub listening to fascinating talks, meeting interesting people, and diving into ideas you probably won’t hear anywhere else.
Every event features a different speaker and theme, covering everything from science, history, psychology, philosophy, politics, film, Irish culture, and bizarre internet rabbit holes to cinema breakdowns, existential questions, and strange moments from history.
One night could be about Dublin history, cult movies, or the psychology of personality. Another could explore black holes, political movements, philosophy, true crime, science fiction, or the weird side of human behaviour.
After each talk there’s a live Q&A, drinks, conversation, and a chance to meet new people who are curious about the world and up for a good night out that’s a little different from the usual pub routine.
