Bloomsday Festival 2024 Launch & Reception


Bloomsday Festival 2024

11 June 2024 at 6pm

On Tuesday, June 11th at 6pm the formal launch of this year’s Bloomsday Festival took place. The Bloomsday Festival was in full-swing this year with close to one-hundred separate events on June 11th-16th throughout Dublin. Our reception featured talks and readings (and some wine!) and celebrated another year of Bloomsday celebrations. We were joined by British artist Jo Hamill as she introduced our new art exhibition Gutter Words. French artist Rémi Rousseau was also on hand as he introduced his new art exhibition Ulysses: Illustrations. Join festival goers around Dublin and the world as we kick off this extraordinary time of the year!

The Bloomsday Festival is organised by the James Joyce Centre in partnership with Fáilte Ireland, Dublin UNESCO City of Literature, and the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media.
