Location

Derry

The 9th annual Irish Theatrical Diaspora Conference will take place Derry/Londonderry, hosted by the School of Creative Arts at the University of Ulster, in the former Foyle Arts Centre and previous home of Field Day Theatre Company.

Derry is the only remaining completely walled city in Ireland, and one of the most outstanding examples of walled cities in Europe. The city has undergone a remarkable transformation since the Ceasefire in the 1990s, and is now a hub for economic and creative activity in the North West.

For directions on how to get here, please see the University's page: http://www.ulster.ac.uk/information/location/mageesigns.html

Building and room locations will be provided when the program has been finalized.
