Their aim was to prove that Joyce's masterpiece is more than the great Irish novel - that it is essentially European.
Seán Doran and Liam Browne celebrate Ulysses for two years and in 18 cities.
The novel, published on February 2, 1922, takes place over a single day in Dublin and mirrors Homer's Odyssey.
Doran and Browne wanted a celebration of Joyce's novel that stretches far beyond Irish shores.
Ulysses: A European Odyssey (UEO) is a celebration that zigzags across Europe, bringing communities and ideas together; art and lived experience.
The men, both from Londonderry in Northern Ireland, are known as Arts Over Borders.
They made a name for themselves as curators of art festivals under the name DoranBrowne.
