The 67th Yeats International Summer School is a distinguished annual literary gathering held in Sligo, dedicated to celebrating the life, work, and legacy of W. B. Yeats, one of Ireland’s most influential poets and a Nobel Laureate in Literature. Now in its 67th year, the summer school brings together scholars, students, and literature enthusiasts from around the world for a week of lectures, seminars, panel discussions, and cultural events. Participants engage deeply with Yeats’s poetry, plays, and historical context, while also exploring broader themes in Irish literature and culture. Set against the rich cultural backdrop of Yeats’s native region, the programme often includes excursions to significant local sites, offering attendees a meaningful connection between the poet’s work and the landscapes that inspired it.
