This year’s Traditional Singing Walking Tour will acknowledge Trinity College’s place in the history and culture of Ireland. 

 

The walk will celebrate in traditional song and story a host of Irish patriots, politicians, writers, poets and Nobel Laureates. 

 

The cast includes Swift, Wilde, Goldsmith, Burke, Beckett, Synge, Thomas Davis, Wolfe Tone, Robert Emmet and Edward Carson, to mention but a few. 

 

There will be a focus on the lyrics of Thomas Moore in bringing Edward Buntings harp music collection to a world audience and in keeping the public memory of his friend Robert Emmet alive as a youthful national hero and martyr.

 

Tour programme, map and song booklet included with the weekend ticket or available for purchase for €5, cash only, provided on the day.
