Lynk’s April Event Guide

Lynk’s April Event Guide

Spring is one of our favourite times of the year. The mood of the city noticeably improves at the first glimpse of sun! Let’s take a look at some of the exciting events taking place in Dublin during April.

5th – 7th April
OFFSET Dublin

Since debuting in 2009, Offset has quickly become one of the world’s most important conferences for the design & creative industries. While you may not know many of the speakers taking part, you will no doubt be familiar with their work. For those in the know, they are the real rockstars of their industries. Tickets are expensive, but to hear from some of the world’s leaders in design, we think it’s worth it.

9th – 10th April
Glen Hansard

The Dublin native returns to Ireland to perform two intimate nights in Vicar Street, in anticipation of his soon-to-be released album The Wild Willing. The popular musician first broke through with legendary Irish rockers The Frames before reaching even higher heights with The Swell Season winning an Academy Award for their song ‘Once’. Hansard is well known to the city of Dublin for regularly appearing on Grafton Street during Christmas Eve, for a spot of busking, to the delight of hundreds of fans.

With two massive tech/design conferences taking place a week apart, it’s no wonder they call it Silicon Docks!
