Poetry Divas at Leonard Cohen Festival

Dublin - as a UNECSCO City of Literature long renowned for its poets, writers and musicians - is the perfect host for this Leonard Cohen Event, which  is an established bi-annual festival that travels the world.

Since the first gathering in Montreal in 2000, the event has captivated audiences in Hydra, Greece (2002); New York, USA (2004); Berlin, Germany (2006); Edmonton, Canada (2008); Krakow, Poland (2010); and Madison, USA (2012).

Among the highlights of the Leonard Cohen Event Dublin are an exclusive screening of never before broadcast footage of one of Leonard’s concerts from his 2013 tour which has been provided by his manager, Ed Sanders, specially for the Dublin Event. 

Friday 8th August 2014

An afternoon of spoken word features John MacKenna, Dermot Bolger, Gerard Smyth, Leif Bodnarchuk – who worked with Cohen from 2008-2013 – and festival favourites, The Poetry Divas. 



We are so excited and a little nervous. Bring it on!
