Every year, local Walking Tours are included in the Festival Programme. Year after year these tours are oversubscribed and are considered one of the festival highlights. On the back of this widespread interest in the rich history and culture of the area, The Five Lamps Arts decided in 2018 to collaborate with artist John Ruddy and historian Hugo McGuiness to develop a series of Walking Tour Booklets and associated videos. 

 

Special demand for the booklets was generated when the project was featured on Nationwide. In 2019, two additional booklets were produced covering Bram Stoker in the north inner City and Sean McDermott Street. And more four further booklets of Dublin’s Deep-Sea Port Walking Tour.
