Set out on a pub crawl of Dublin’s formerly gay bars, opening doors to intimate memories of gay life prior to the decriminalisation of homosexuality in Ireland. Your temporal tour guide, Hana Laine Flamm, will share stories of pre-1993 Dublin in surprisingly familiar pubs that once offered spaces for queers to flirt, to dance, and to build their own futures.
