Watch our Bloomsday video on YouTube
Queensland Irish Association’s beloved annual Bloomsday celebration was held on Queen Street Mall on Sunday, June 16th.
Bloomsday is celebrated worldwide, as the work of Irish author James Joyce is brought to life.
We recorded a video of the event, as well as live-streaming it on our popular Facebook page. You can watch the video on our YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EcLlas1s3Pk
We had readings from Ulysses, and entertainment by Queensland Irish Association Pipe Band and Tom Kimmet. June 16th fell on a Sunday this year, a perfect day to head into the city and spend time enjoy some Irish culture on Queen Street Mall.
After the event, pipers lead the audience to Gilhooley’s, where they enjoyed drinks and lunch.
