RTÉ 1916: Reflecting the Rising is a large-scale multi-location public event that will take place in Dublin on Easter Monday 2016 from 11am to 6pm, with hundreds of talks, walking tours, music, dance, street art, street theatre, and moments of reflection and celebration.
RTÉ 1916: Reflecting the Rising aims to provide Irish people of all ages with a one day canvas on which to explore the Rising and our relationship with it, both historically and contemporaneously. In locations on both sides of the River Liffey and on the river itself, the event is a public invitation to commemorate, to celebrate and to understand this significant moment in our collective history.
Hundreds of free events with a historical element are planned over eight city centre public zones which will be open to all.
The fun begins at 11am on Easter Monday and runs until 6pm.
Thousands of free tickets will be made available for indoor events; it is recommended that you book early to avoid disappointment as capacity in some spaces could be a concern.
RTÉ Reflecting the Rising is presented in partnership with Ireland 2016, and created with the cooperation of the National Transport Authority, Dublin City Council and the Department of Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht.
