In a currently unpublished study by the co-author focusing on Irish experiences of migration to Leeds during this period, none of the narrators in oral history interviews had any recollection of Ulster Weeks. This could be because, as Irish-identifying migrants, these were not the key demographic that the Ulster Weeks celebrations were aimed at. There is also, however, a distinct lack of recognition of the Ulster Weeks events in the city’s cultural institutions – photographs on the city library’s Leodis website fail to provide any explanation of events, while articles in the Yorkshire Evening Post do little other than regurgitate the Ulster Week press releases verbatim. There was a resounding failure to capture public imagination with events in the city.
