The Jonathan Swift Festival is back for 2024! Join us for this year's Jonathan Swift Festival to celebrate the life and works of Jonathan Swift, the renowned satirist and author of "Gulliver's Travels." The festival includes a range of events including lectures, night time cathedral tours, the 22nd International Swift Symposium alongside performances and guided walks that explore his influence on literature and satire.
Check out their full programme here.
For the special occasion, from mid-October until the end of November, Aloft Dublin City will have Swift inspired cocktails, games and books available at the WXYZ Bar on the 7th floor. The cocktails include the Lilliputian Fizz, made with gin, St. Germain, lemon juice, sugar and soda and the Giant’s Sip, made with rum, pineapple juice, lime, sugar and Angostura bitters, all inspired by Gulliver’s Travels! Yum!!
