The Vitrine Project by Dublin based creative agency In the Company of Huskies for ID2015. To wit:

For one day only, we placed everyday items and street furniture in museum-style vitrines around Dublin city centre, encouraging people to rethink what design is, and what impact it has on everyday life.

The Liminal exhibition runs at the ID2015 Design Hub, Dublin Castle from November 20th to December 30th, 2015.

Luggwoods is a “magical Christmas experience” on the crest of Lugg Mountain, Saggart, Co. Dublin (five minutes from Tallaght).

Daniel Halpin writes:

Luggwoods, named after the ancient Lugg Forest in Saggart will be transporting families by train through the Coillte-owned Lugg Forest to the purpose-built barn style event on top of Lugg Hill. There’s a train journey through the enchanted forest where you can take in amazing views of Dublin, you can also meet and greet the grinch before arriving at Santa’s grotto.

We’d like to offer two family tickets (2 adults and 2 kids) for Broadsheet readers. To enter, complete this sentence:
