Description

Talks About Stuff You Didn't Think You'd Care About...

Speakers this month are:

Una Mullally
Sarah Maria Griffin
Edwin Sammon
Giles Brody
Niamh Mongey
And host, as usual is Gearoid Farrelly

On the first Wednesday of every month we hold a night of 'Lectures' by wonderful speakers talking passionately about different topics. They could be about frog memes or democratic revolutions. They could also be about Erwin Schrodinger or Paris Hilton. Or anything in between...


HeadStuff Lectures are not mass, not school and definitely not Ted Talks. This will be an evening of short presentations on anything from popular culture to global catastrophes.

It is hosted by comedian Gearoid Farrelly and features six fascinating Lectures.

EARLY BIRD tickets are SOLD OUT!
Standard tickets are only €8 if you buy online or €10 on the door.
