Stories & Songs of Ireland
Go Local: Dumfries & Galloway
(Fri 25 Oct: 7pm - Dumfries)
In Ireland it was and still is the custom to combine stories with music, and many musicians carried stories along with the tunes. In this relaxed session, storyteller Nuala Hayes and musician Aoife Granville share stories and music inspired by Irish people and places they know and love.

2024 marks the 35th anniversary of the Scottish International Storytelling Festival, coinciding with the 35th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Since 1989, SISF has been building bridges between cultures, artists and audiences all over the world through the power of storytelling – connecting past, present and future. This year’s theme is ‘Bridges Between’. At a time where literal, figurative and societal walls continue to be constructed, we invite everyone to look beyond these boundaries and to celebrate the last and the next 35 years of storytelling with us.
This event is free but ticketed. It takes place at the Stove Cafe, 100 High Street, Dumfries DG1 2BJ. For bookings and info click the link above.
