Ireland's Edge - The Good Life / Slí Bheatha

This is not a ticket to the Dingle Gin Music Trail

We are delighted to be returning to Dingle to present Ireland’s Edge - The Good Life / Slí Bheatha taking place in the Dingle Skellig Hotel on Friday the 2nd and Saturday the 3rd of December as part of Other Voices 2022.

Ireland's Edge is a special strand of Other Voices which provides a unique space during the weekend’s festivities for curious minds to connect, share ideas and explore new perspectives.

'The Good Life / Slí Bheatha’ informs an action and activist-oriented discussion across a wide range of topics and issues. These timely and thought-provoking conversations will explore how change has been and is being wrought in society, politics, the economy, culture, technology and the environment through collective and individual action.

Now in its eighth year, Ireland’s Edge continues to offer germane reflections and diverse perspectives on our past, present and future in the company of an engaged, curious attendance and panels of thinkers, policy makers, innovators, commentators and artists. As always, there will be some very special musical performances.
