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.[2] Contributors are a mix of established authors and poets and novices who have submitted their written works for consideration.[1][3][4]
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.[5][6]
A selection of pieces from the show entitled Sunday Miscellany: A Selection 2018 – 2023, won an Irish Book Award in 2023.[7]
The series had over 300,000 listeners in August 2024,[8] beating presenter-led shows such as Sunday with Miriam, and Liveline.[9]
