Absolut Fringe Festival -an absolute must!
In 30 venues all over Dublin between the 8 – 23 September, you’ll see the most innovative arts festival in Dublin in action and at Celtic Group Hostels, we can’t wait. It’s Ireland’s largest multi-disciplinary arts festival and it runs city-wide throughout Dublin showcasing the newest and best theatre, circus, comedy, dance, performance, art and live gigs featuring Irish and international productions. Some features are amazing, some are crazy. But every single one is really on the fringe of artistic and cultural life. In short the absolute fringe festival is an absolute must!
It’s now in its 18th year and never fails to surprise and enthrall us. This time we’ve got 90 artists with 624 events spanning theatre, dance, live music and visual arts in the 30 venues. Creative talent comes in all shapes and sizes and for artists, the Fringe gives them an opportunity to innovate, to cross disciplines and boundaries and to find new ways and places to create work. For the rest of us, it gives us a chance to drink in new artistic experiences, to engage with artistic platforms we never would have dreamed of before and to take a step outside our normal life and do something fresh and invigorating.
These events are taking place all over Dublin and if you’re staying with us at Celtic group hostels in Dublin, you’ll be no more than a stone’s throw from hundreds of events. So if you’re into trying new things, have an interest in the arts or indeed are an artist in your own right, you simply have to make it to Dublin for this festival. With ticket prices starting at €5 and never exceeding €27.50 (for a single ticket), ABSOLUT Fringe 2012 will expand your imagination – that’s for sure. Check out their website for more information.
