Bloomsday at the Burgess

  • Mon 16 Jun 2025

share

You are invited to attend a Bloomsday celebration on 16 June 2025, celebrating Anthony Burgess’s favourite book, James Joyce’s Ulysses.

Joyce’s novel is set in Dublin on 16 June 1904. ‘Bloomsday’ is so called because two of the book’s protagonists are called Leopold and Molly Bloom.

Anthony Burgess wrote two non-fiction books, a stage musical and many articles in response to the work of James Joyce. He even wrote the forward to a Joyce-themed cookery book. His novel Earthly Powers features Joyce as a character and includes a performance of Blooms of Dublin, his musical based on Ulysses.

The event runs from 6:00 pm until 8:00 pm at the International Anthony Burgess Foundation, 3 Cambridge Street, Manchester, M1 5BY.

The Bloomsday social will include music, speeches, short films, and traditional Irish hospitality.

Tickets for the Bloomsday social are free, but numbers are strictly limited.
