About the Live Aid at the National Library of Ireland exhibition

It showcases material donated to the NLI from the Band Aid Trust, including the behind-the-scenes, and iconic moments captured by photographers on the day, covering bands and artists on both sides of the Atlantic. This free exhibition is open to the public daily (10.00am – 4.00pm), no booking required.
