There's more to Irish culture than the 17th March celebrations.
Did you miss Saint Patrick's Day in Monaco? You'll always find guinness and a party in McCarthy's Irish pub, and the Jeune Chambre Economique holds a soiree in the Brasserie de Monaco. But there's more to Irish culture than the annual celebration of the Emerald Isle's patron saint. If you want to discover more about the cultural roots of Prince Albert's mother, Princess Grace, you'll find a packed agenda at the Princess Grace Irish Library. With around 1 event per month running from September to May, Irish artists and writers are invited to talk about their work and sign copies of books. Entry is 10 euros on the door, and you'd be advised to reserve a place in advance. Here are the 2010/2011 season's upcoming talks:
