Roscommon’s Literary Festival for children, the BookWorms Festival, makes a welcome return this summer. Last year’s inaugural festival proved so popular with youngsters that this year it’s back and it’s even bigger! The festival runs from Wednesday to Saturday, June 8-11, with events taking place all around Roscommon town including Roscommon Arts Centre, Roscommon Library, The Comfy Cafe, The Pepper Mill, Molloy’s Bakery, Gleeson’s Townhouse, and various schools in the county.

Two gorgeous top family shows and a pair of family workshops take place at the Linenhall Arts Centre in Castlebar in April. Monkeyshine Theatre presents The Magic Bookshop on Saturday April 16 with performances at 11am, 12.15pm, 1.45pm and 3pm. Peter and John do their very best to make sure every book gets a new life and that none of the magic is lost. Step inside this unusual shop, swap a book and maybe even take a little of the magic home with you. Audiences are invited to bring gently used books to swap. Previous Monkeyshine productions have been described as “magical”, “delightful” and “a treat for all ages”. The show is suitable for five-year-olds and their families, with a duration 30 minutes.
