\n\"\"\n<\/div>\n
\n10 Days in Dublin is a city-wide festival in its third year and going strong.  A classmate of mine and some of his friends had the idea a few years back to make an open festival, inspired by Fringe in Edinburgh<\/a>, in which artists from the city and elsewhere could apply to participate apart from the politics of the art scene.   The festival has grown substantially since then, taking over the city’s best venues for ten days in July with a line up so expansive. Its head spinning.  The artistic spirit of Dublin is overwhelming and inspiring to a foreigner living in the city, and the festival itself brings that together in a tangible and collective expression of the shared belief in that spirit.\n<\/div>\n
\n \n<\/div>\n
\nThe festival has multiple acts on every night running simultaneously all over the city.  The programs include Comedy, Film, Music, Spoken Word, Theatre and Visual Art.  If you’re a student traveler, this is a great way to see what’s going on in the city beyond the usual tourist attractions, and to meet great locals around your age.  \n<\/div>\n
\n \n<\/div>\n
\nHere are some performances I can recommend from personal experience<\/strong>: \n<\/div>\n

\nThe Wedding Party<\/em> (Theatre) will be performed July 8th  and 9th at 1:30 pm at the Boys School in Smock Alley theatre for €8.\n<\/div>\n

\n \n<\/div>\n
\nTouchwood and CPNHGN<\/em> (Music) will be playing July 4th at the the Workman’s for €10 at 8:30 pm.\n<\/div>\n
\n \n<\/div>\n
