With 100 years of perspective, the festival sims to challenge speakers, participants and audiences alike. Debates and discussions about society and political life in Ireland, along with questioning our progress, will be welcome. You are asked to consider what we’ve learned and what we’ve left to learn since the Proclamation of our Republic.

During the festival, participants will also be heartened to look towards the future. Questions that challenge the mind and get people thinking about their future will be thrown out, such as, what might the next 100 years of Irish society and politics look like?

The motivation behind the 2016 Limerick Spring Festival is to celebrate the role of the citizen in political life, and in particular to encourage the active participation of citizens in local, national and European politics.
