DublinCity Council would like to invite members of the public to attend its Covid-19 commemorative event which will take place in Merrion Square Park on Sunday, 20 March at 1pm.

The event is part of a National Day of Remembrance in recognition of the efforts of the general public, volunteers and all workers throughout the pandemic and in remembrance of people who lost their lives due to Covid-19.

Opening with a speech from the Lord Mayor of Dublin Alison Gilliland, the intimate event will see performances from a variety of artists, including poets Paula Meehan and Theo Dorgan. Meehan will read 'The Light Returning’, a poem written out of the darkness of the Covid years as a gesture of hope and resilience. Speaking about the poem, Meehan said “it celebrates the comfort of the natural world and offers gratitude for surviving to welcome back the light of spring”. Dorgan will read his translation of the poem into Irish, ‘An Solas ag Filleadh'.

There will be additional performances from Uilleann piper Fiadh Fitzpatrick and the Continuum Youth Choir, with participation from Dublin Civil Defence and Dublin Fire Brigade

Everyone is welcome to attend the event.

The Dublin City Covid Remembrance Event will take place close to the South East Entrance of Merrion Square Park.

The ceremony should last approximately 30 minutes.
