A book bound in old yellow fabric sits on a gradated background. It reads, in red ink, Dracula By Bram Stoker. This is a photo of a first edition, first issue copy of the novel sold for USD8,125 in 2019.

A photo a man standing in a library in front of some book shelves and wearing dark green Dublin2029 tshirt. He is smiling and looking at a book in his hand, which is titled “Best of Ireland”. He is a tall man with long loose brown hair, glasses, and a short grey beard. He is wearing a green short-sleeved tshirt with the Dublin2029 logo. The logo shows a figure poised to step into a new world in a large D written in old celtic style script. The blue and green reflects both Dublin's and Ireland's colours. Underneath the bid logo text is blue text reading "Dublin 2029, our crossroads lit by stories and stars".
Ready for the “Best of Ireland”? This #Dublin2029 t-shirt is well-prepared to visit its homeland and we can’t wait to welcome it back. Are you already rocking one? Send us a photo - we’d love to see it! (1/2)
Text on a background image of a building, with a logo beneath. The text says: Let's talk Dublin in 2029! 3pm Saturday. The background image is a shot of the Mauldron Hotel, Tallaght, where Octocon is on, taken on a sunny day with clear blue skies. It is a modern multi-story building with lots of straight lines and glass in the frontage. In the middle of the image is the Dublin2029 logo. The logo shows a figure poised to step into a new world in a large D written in old celtic style script. The blue and green in the logo reflects both Dublin's and Ireland's colours. Underneath the bid logo text is white text reading "Dublin 2029, our crossroads lit by stories and stars".
Fancy a chat about #Dublin2029 at Octocon?
Call into the Grain & Grill bar at 3pm today to meet some of the Dublin 2029 team, ask questions about the bid and to talk about exciting ideas and volunteering opportunities. We’d love to see you!
We’re going to be at @octocon.bsky.social! Come along and say hi to the friendly volunteers at our table for all of your #Dublin2029 questions! (1/2)
Motivated by an 11:00 #Dublin2029 meeting, I have done a lot of con stuff this afternoon for both the bid and my little residential con while watching the rather excellent #RWC2025 3rd/4th place match with #NZLvFRA proving to be exciting, but sadly not great so far if you're French!
A photo of Tommy sitting at a bar or restaurant table in a Dublin2029 tshirt. He is smiling and holding a pint of beer towards the camera. Tommy is a bald white man with glasses and is wearing a black short-sleeved tshirt with the Dublin2029 logo. The logo shows a figure poised to step into a new world in a large D written in old celtic style script. The blue and green reflects both Dublin's and Ireland's colours. Underneath the bid logo text is white text reading "Dublin 2029, our crossroads lit by stories and stars".
The first sighting of a #Dublin2029 t-shirt in the wild! Thank you to Tommy for sharing this - we think it looks great and apparently it’s nice and comfy too. Are you already rocking a Dublin2029 design? Send us a photo - we’d love to see it! (1/2)

The #Eastercon programme is out, and I'm on it! guide.easterconbelfast.org We'll be hosting a #Dublin2029 meet-up on Saturday evening, and I'll be talking con committees; fandom, politics & boycotts; and Andor on Sunday! Hope to see lots of lovely people there!
That was the #Octocon that was. Lots of good #Dublin2029 buzz and I had 3 good panels today. I was especially happy with the D&D one I moderated. Some really good comments about the power of TTRPGs for education, community building and mental well-being, as well as the fun!
At Erasmuscon in Rotterdam for the weekend. Doing more shilling for the #Dublin2029 #Worldcon bid, of course, but also engaging in great European fandom and being one of the Irish delegates for the ESFS business meeting. Oh, and hoping I might win the Best Promoter Hall of Fame award, maybe? :)
I'm flying to Rotterdam today for Erasmuscon, this year's Eurocon, and it's going to be wonderful. Much shilling for the #Dublin2029 Worldcon bid, ofc. But also I am so glad I'm not back to work until Monday week, because next week will just be recovery...
