Exclusive Preview of Monto AR

Join us for an exclusive preview of Monto AR, an immersive experience that brings to life the landmark sites of Edwardian Monto, once the largest red-light district in Europe. Immortalised by Joyce as Night Town in Ulysses, Monto was a dark playground for the dissolute sons of the upper classes, featuring flash houses, low-end kips, shebeens, and pubs on every corner. Yet, it was also home to thousands of working-class people, including some of the very poorest families living in deplorable tenements.

Using the Imvizar app on your personal mobile device, you’ll stand on the very streets that were once notorious for prostitution and vice, and see the buildings that once stood there.

The event will start at The LAB Gallery, 1 Foley Street, Dublin 1. There are two previews at 1pm and 2pm.

The event is free but booking is essential.
