About this Event

This one-day conference will be held on Saturday 15th October 2022, hosted by the School of Media and the Centre for Critical Media Literacy (CCML) at Technological University Dublin, TU Dublin East Quad, Grangegorman, Dublin. https://goo.gl/maps/bWvtRg8ZGAKSZeFW9

Organised by the Traditional Song Forum and CCML, with the support of Poetry Ireland, the Irish Traditional Music Archive and An Góilín Traditional Singers Club.

This will be an in-person conference, with proceedings live-streamed for those who cannot be there. Admission is free for both modes of attendance. You can select your ticket type when you click the 'Register' button.

The Traditional Song Forum’s annual Broadside Day conference has been held every February for almost 20 years, but whenever possible TSF likes to add a second event, Broadside Extra, in the autumn, in partnership with other institutions and organisations. This is the first time the event will be held in Dublin.

Broadside Extra is our opportunity to gather and talk about the fascinating field of cheap print and street literature of the past; broadsides, chapbooks, last dying speeches, catchpennies, garlands and news sheets, penny histories and children’s books, popular prints, pedlars, jobbing printers. ballad-singers, and so on. Proposals for papers and panels are invited in any of these areas. Proposals that examine how marginalised people and groups used these media forms are particularly welcome.

A full programme will be added to this page in the next few weeks.
