About this event
CNN’s Anchor and Chief National Correspondent, John King is renowned for his sharp political insight, trusted election coverage, and his iconic use of the Magic Wall. Now, he brings his expertise, Irish heritage, and remarkable career stories to stages in Dublin/Galway for an evening of insight and reflection.
King will be joined by one of Ireland’s most celebrated journalists, Dearbhail McDonald, who will lead adynamic and thought-provoking conversation.
Engaging, timely, and deeply informed, this is a must-attend for anyone interested in politics, media, or the future of democracy.
