A portrait of Blindboy: he wears his signature bandaged mask and logo tee

Join polymath, author, musician, and academic Blindboy for a live event celebrating the release of his acclaimed new book, Topographica Hibernica. Known as a "cultural phenomenon" by The New York Times, The Blindboy Podcast is an award-winning storytelling show in the Irish Seanchaí tradition, blending history, fiction, culture, and politics into what Blindboy calls “The podcast hug.”

With over 60 million global listeners and sold-out live shows worldwide—from Toronto to Galway—Blindboy offers unique, humorous insights into complex topics like mental health, art, politics, and science. Drawing on his experience as a writer for BBC, ITV, and more, plus his academic background, he creates intimate live shows featuring readings, special guests, and thoughtful conversations that feel like private chats in a public space.

Praised by The Irish Times as "one of the most gifted writers of his generation," Blindboy’s unique voice and perspective make these shows unmissable.

Blindboy addresses topics like mental health that Irish news media outlets rarely touch, and brings a millennial sensibility to political discussions. His register is earnest and intellectual, but also funny and down-to-earth.
