Slugger is leaving the city behind and heading to the picturesque seaside village of Cushendun. Nestled in the heart of the stunning Glens of Antrim, our venue for the day will be the historic Old Church. And our partner for the event is Grow the Glens.
This all-day event is designed as a mini summer school. We invite you to join us for a day filled with insightful conversation, lively debate, and engaging chat.
We have arranged for the event to be fully catered to ensure a seamless experience. You will enjoy tea, coffee, and fresh scones upon arrival, followed by a hot lunch. Refreshments will be available throughout the day.
We are delighted to welcome the ever-popular pairing of Alex Kane and Allison Morris, who will be exploring the most pressing issues of the day. In the afternoon we will have Deirdre Heenan, Tim Cairns, & Patricia O'Lynn for our Slugger Talks Back session.

Note on food and drink
There are not many places to eat in Cushendun and we only have an hour for lunch so we are keeping it simple and hired a caterer for the event. We will be offering a vegan/vegetarian option as well as caffeine-free drinks and oat milk so we should be able to cater for all tastes.
The food and drink is an optional add-on. You can bring your own food and drinks if you like but we would strongly advise you to take it to keep things simple. We are not putting any markup on the food and drink. We're just passing on the cost of the caterer.
