Donal Dineen, Katie’s Corner, Ballina, Culture Night 22.09.2023

Donal Dineen

THENCFis bringing Donal Dineen all the way up from the Kingdom to Ballina* where he will round off Culture night 2023 in style.

Donal is Ireland’s foremost alternative DJ and is currently touring a set entitled “Backstory”. He is a veteran broadcaster of content so uncompromisingly erudite that the media guardians will only put it out of a weekday, after bedtime and for a short while, if at all.

Donal is also a renowned and prolific video and media artist.

But most of all - and I’m sure he’s so very, very tired of hearing it - Donal is the man from No Disco. If you don’t know Disco already here’s a retrospective. Nostaliga follows.
