Scoop & A Yarn

Dee Laffin returns to the festival for the third consecutive year with her stage show Scoop & a Yarn. She’ll be interviewing all our guests and hosting lively panel discussions. This is the perfect spot to grab a coffee or a Guinness 00 sit back, and enjoy the chats, laughs, and more.
