NUA (NEW): Club Leabhar (Book Club)
Gach Máirt, 7-8.15 i.n., ag tosú ar an 7 Deireadh Fómhair
(Every Tuesday 7-8.15 p.m., starting on 7 October)
Bí linn inár gClub Leabhar Gaeilge! (Join us for our Irish Book Club!)
The first book will, of course, be an Irish language text: Oscar Wilde’s An Prionsa Sona (The Happy Prince). The idea is that each person participating will read a paragraph or two and then attempt translation. Do not worry that you may not understand the text fully – we can all work together, and I will always come to the rescue when anybody gets stuck. The standard will not be too high.
This is a great opportunity to consolidate your Irish learning, and it will make you feel that you are getting somewhere when you can read a text.

What we do
Popup Gaeltacht
Caifé Gaeilge
Learning Irish
Bíonn ár bPopup Gaeltacht ar siúl gach dara Domhnach den mhí (seachas Iúil agus Lúnasa) i dteach tábhairne Norton i Digbeth ó 1 p.m. go dtí 3 p.m. Fáilte roimh foghlaimeoirí a thosaigh le gairid chomh maith le cainteoirí líofa Gaeilge.
I ndiaidh ár gcruinniú, bíonn séisiún ceoil traidisiúnta na hÉireann ann.
Our PopUp Gaeltacht is held every second Sunday of the month (except July and August) in Norton’s pub in Digbeth from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. We welcome both learners who started recently and fluent speakers of Irish.
After the meeting, there is always a traditional Irish music session.
Bígí linn le haghaidh comhrá as Gaeilge nó le bheith ag plé foghlaim na Gaeilge (gach ceathrú Céadaoin sa mhí sa Cosy Club i Bennett’s Hill, Birmingham).
Come along for an informal chat as Gaeilge or to talk with like-minded people about learning Irish (every fourth Wednesday a month in the Cosy Club in Bennett’s Hill, Birmingham).
Ar mhaith leat Gaeilge a fhoghlaim ón tús nó ar mhaith leat do chúpla focal a fheabhsú? Breathnaigí ar ár leathanach foghlama agus faighigí amach faoi na cúrsaí agus na hacmhainní atá againn.
Do you want to learn Irish from scratch or would you like to improve your cúpla focal? Have a look at our learning page and find out about our courses and resources.
Who we are
Many of us came over from Ireland a long time ago, others have lived here only for a short while. Some were born and bred in the UK with Irish roots, others feel a connection to Ireland for other reasons. We all share an interest in the Irish language, an Ghaeilge.
