Sunday Miscellany

Sunday Miscellany is an English-language Irish radio programme featuring new Irish writing of poetry and (mostly non-fiction) prose, broadcast on Sunday mornings on RTÉ Radio 1 since 1968. The programme does not have hosts, but contributions of writings, read by the writers are intercut with related music. Contributors are a mix of established authors and poets and novices who have submitted their written works for consideration.

The standard format is pre-recorded, but frequently, versions of the programme have been recorded in front of a live audience with a chamber or full orchestra and vocalists.

A selection of pieces from the show entitled Sunday Miscellany: A Selection 2018 – 2023, won an Irish Book Award in 2023.

The series had over 300,000 listeners in August 2024, beating presenter-led shows such as Sunday with Miriam, and Liveline.

Contributors to the programme have included:

Selections of pieces performed on the show have been published.
