The History Festival of Ireland will take place on the weekend of 7–8 June at Huntington Castle, Clonegal, Co. Carlow.
Now in its third year, this summer's event is being curated by Angus Mitchell and will see 50 well-regarded historians and thinkers from Ireland and the UK contributing to more than 40 discussions, interviews and performances. A dedicated stage will see an in-depth two-day exploration of World War One, there's a History Ireland Hedge School and a number of presentations specially for the Vintage Car or Motoring enthusiast.
A day-ticket costs €22.50 and provides access to all events being held that day.
Parking is free and food and refreshments can be purchased on site.
