Travellers hoping to take in some contemporary culture during a break in September can book ferries to Dublin to check out the Fringe Festival.
The event will take place at various venues around the Irish capital from September 11th to 26th.
It is described by organisers as "16 days and nights of explosive, boundary-pushing performing arts and music".
People interested in seeing what is on offer at the festival this year can take
ferries from Holyhead to Dublin with
Irish Ferries or
Stena Line.
The latter also operates
ferries from Holyhead to Dun Laoghaire, which is just outside the capital city.
Highlights of the 2010 programme will include its line-up of contemporary theatre productions, such as Anatomy of a Seagull and By Your Side, which will be performed at the Smock Alley Theatre as part of the Absolut Fringe Factory series.
Visitors will also be able to take part in public participation events and enjoy comedy, live music, dance and more.
P&O and
Norfolkline also provide access to the Irish capital, with regular
ferries from Liverpool to Dublin.
