Join Pádraig Walsh for a fascinating talk where he shall explore the customs and traditions associated with Irish weddings and wakes. While most of us are familiar with wedding traditions such as wearing a white wedding dress and the use of wedding bouquets, do we know where and how these traditions originated? Listen to Pádraig explaining some of the more unusual aspects of Irish wakes such as 'wake games' which might shock many of us today!

This shall be a free admission event, fully seated within our Gunpowder Magazine but pre-booking is essential due to limited capacity. Book today by emailing: charlesfort@opw.ie with your name, quantity of tickets required, event title and a contact number.
