Seanchoícheanta will take place in Co. Wicklow on July 21-23.
Storytelling collective Seanchoíche have announced a pilot festival for Co. Wicklow, which will take place next month.
Seanchoícheanta will be hosted on a beautiful farm from July 21-23, consisting of a uniquely special version of the crew's usual storytelling nights
The powerful cultural nights have taken place across Dublin, London, Belfast, Limerick, Amsterdam, Sydney and Melbourne.
"It is a night for people from all corners of the city to come and listen and engage with spoken stories, ranging from personal anecdotes, monologues, fictional narratives, to poetry pieces and anything in between," Seanchoíche's website explains. The event was founded by Irishman Ciaran Gaffney and has grown to incredible heights.

This time, it will be in the comfort of a gorgeous farm at the foot of some of Wicklow's most stunning mountains.
In addition to Seanchoíche's storytelling night, organisers will have a range of activities and workshops available such as yoga, foraging, hiking, storytelling and games.
Fad Saoil Saunas will also be on site with sauna slots available to book for you and some friends, which must be booked separately.
Food trucks on site from Roots, and music - ranging from trad to disco - will keep you on our toes through the night.
Tickets are available to purchase here and are selling out fast. Camping is on-site and included, but bring your own tent (and booze).
Everyone has a story to tell. And it is worth telling. Seanchoíche gave us a safe space to tell our stories without being judged. I told my story, and I was %100 myslef. Thanks to the wonderful @gaffneyciaran. It will be in Limerick soon and in London in February .. watch out ❤️ pic.twitter.com/aM8MrmaZlk
