Events at this location

The annual Ennis Book Club Festival was started in 2007 when a small group of local volunteers, in association with Clare County Library, identified the need for a new literary and social event to replace the demised Ennis October Arts Festival. Being members of a local Book Club, the wish was to create a literary event that focused primarily on readers and book lovers.

It has grown from strength to strength over the years and attracts a wide audience from all over Ireland, as well as overseas visitors, who gather to talk about and celebrate the books and literary topics they love.

As well as author readings and discussions, this festival offers quite a range of events, including debates on topical affairs, poetry readings, theatre, music, workshops and bookclub quizzes.

Tickets for all events can be booked at the glór box office or by calling +353 (0)65 684 3103.

To be certain of a place at the free events it is strongly suggested that you book tickets for them to be sure of a place or come early to avoid disappointment. This is particularly important regarding the children’s events where capacity is limited.

Pre-booked tickets can be collected at the relevant venue immediately prior to the event.
