The Festival of Writing & Ideas team presents a Winter Series for the culturally curious, to entertain until we return to Borris House in June.

Our Festival regulars know us as a little organisation that thinks big, so starting in January we began to host a series of events bringing you a diverse array of internationally acclaimed speakers to share their insightful, thought-provoking and timely stories.

You might like to dip in and out of our programme (click on individual events below), or try all eight talks as a series.

Thanks to Kathy Gilfillan for the seed funding for the Winter Series. Thanks also to Crownway Investments and The Doyle Collection, and to our patrons, for the continued sponsorship of the Festival of Writing and Ideas
