The Lit Festival returns to Waterford for its 9th edition with three days of workshops, performances and creative events for teens, young adults and families. Discover Rap, Spoken Word & Activism with Mikey Cullen, Improv Theatre with Darren Yorke and Theatre Making with Niamh Fennessy. Join our Myth-Making in Modern Ireland panel with Ruth Ennis and Ellen Ryan, or share your stories at StorySlam! with Fighting Words Cork. Plus, explore as Gaeilge le Children's Books Ireland's Clinic Leabhair, a draw-along for U12s with Sarah Bowie and The Lit Does D&D – there’s something for every young person who wants to be part of a great story.
