Join us on one of the bar’s stately balconies for recitations, musical moments, and good cheer. Bloomsday is a commemoration and celebration of the life of Irish writer James Joyce, observed annually in Dublin and around the world on June 16, the day his 1922 novel 'Ulysses' takes place in.
in cooperation with Patchogue’s own James Joyce Restaurant & Bar will offer our inaugural Bloomsday celebration as a fund raiser on June 16 from 5:30 to 8:00 p.m. Some cities hold marathon readings in theaters. In some locales, to mimic the original walk through Dublin, participants may travel from performance space to performance space which hardly by accident often are pubs, taverns, or bars. Since then, it has become a more formal homage to the author and his book.īloomsdays now often center around individuals (often celebrities) reading excerpts from the famous (once infamous) book, and Irish musical interludes fill the space between the readings. As the day passed, a home movie captured their increasingly unsteady footing. On June 16, 1954, poet Patrick Kavanaugh, and journalist-novelist Flan O’Brien with four other compatriots walked and rode in horse-drawn coaches on a pilgrimage through the streets of Dublin stopping at locations depicted in the book. It occurs annually on June 16 because the entire 640-page novel takes place all on one day: June 16, 1904. Bloomsday has been celebrated in Dublin since 1954 and has been ever expanding to cities and towns around the world. Commemorating the life and legend of Irish writer James Joyce on Bloomsday, every June 16, we take a moment to honor and celebrate all weve gained from his. It’s a celebration of Irish author James Joyce’s masterpiece Ulysses published in 1922 and celebrating its 100th birthday this year.
What’s that you may ask? A horticultural event?
