AFTERNOON TEA PARTIES in Galway, fancy dress nights in Kerry and an evening of female prose in Dublin – these are just some of the events happening today for Nollaig na mBan.
Known as Little Christmas around the world, the twelfth day of Christmas is often called Nollaig na mBan (or Women’s Christmas) in Ireland.
The Feast of the Epiphany (as 6 January is officially called) traditionally gave women an opportunity to put their feet up and let the men of the house do all the work.
After an exhausting couple of weeks, are you celebrating Women’s Christmas?
