St Patrick’s Festival: The Highlights

Dublin gets set to celebrate St Patrick’s Day with a host of events from March 17-20

The world class line-up of events and street-theatre will showcase all that is great about Ireland both domestically and internationally, creating a carnival atmosphere across the Capital.  

2016 marks the grand finale of the three-year creative thematic which began in 2014 inspired by the Past, the Present and the Future respectively. This year’s theme, Imagine If…, looks to the future and sees the streets of Dublin come to life through performance and displays.

The festival’s cultural programme, I Love My City, returns with a host of events and programmes that have been curated by the Festival. Some of these events will be staged in some of Dublin’s most beautiful, historic and prestigious cultural venues and spaces. Headline events, featuring established and emerging Irish and international artists, from a variety of disciplines, including literature, music, film, spoken word, design, visual art and more, will be presented throughout the Festival.
