Annual PPI Festival
The first PPI Festival was held in October 2022, and has since run annually co-ordinated by PPI Ignite Network @ University of Galway in its first year, PPI Ignite Network @ DCU in 2023, PPI Ignite Network @UCC in 2024, and PPI Ignite @RCSI in 2025. The month-long festival is a key event in the PPI calendar, and will continue as an expanded All-Island Festival from 2026 onwards.
