This day of talks from leading experts will explore various facets of modern Irish-language media, from the diverse world of Irish popular music to the rise and rise of the Irish film industry.

The last few years have seen a flourishing of Irish-language music, television and film. From the international attention won by Irish rap group Kneecap to the first ever Oscar nomination for an Irish-language movie (An Cailín Ciúin in 2023), it is clear that Irish media is popular as never before.
