About The Event

After a hugely successful first year, Ireland’s Publishing Show is back for 2026—bigger and better than ever! Set in the beautiful surroundings of County Clare along the Wild Atlantic Way, this event is designed to inspire, educate, and connect writers at every stage of their journey.

Organised by Siobhan Purcell, a self-published author with a passion for the writing community, Ireland’s Publishing Show brings together industry experts, bestselling authors, and key voices in publishing. Having attended many writing conferences around the world, Siobhan wanted to create a space in Ireland where writers can learn, grow, and network.

We’re excited to introduce a brand-new lineup of speakers to motivate and guide you. Whether you’re dreaming of publishing your first book, looking to level up your career, or already established and seeking fresh ideas and connections, this event has something for you. Staying at the same fantastic venue you all loved, we’ve also made improvements based on your feedback to make the experience even better.

Linking in with St. Patrick’s Day, this is an unmissable event filled with expert-led talks, interactive workshops, and dedicated networking opportunities. We can’t wait to welcome you back to Ireland’s Publishing Show 2026!
