The International Literature Festival Dublin (ILFD), will be held from 15 to 24 May 2026 in the heart of this most literary city.
Where else in the world could be more appropriate for a top-notch literature festival than Dublin? This is the city where the ghosts of great writers and playwrights lurk on every street – Wilde, Joyce, the four Nobel Literature laureates Yeats, Shaw, Beckett and Heaney. And in the splendid Museum of Modern Literature, the city and the country’s storytelling heritage is laid out in loving detail.
