With a rich mix of modern theatre, dance, family spectacles, street theatre, rock, world music and trad, the festival has grown to be one of the most significant cultural celebrations of the Irish summer festival season.
The Cafés Carte Blanche Project:
The Cafés Carte Blanche project is a unique project where artists convert several disused premises in the town centre into themed interactive cafes. Professional practitioners join forces with local groups and individuals to curate a café, each staffed with young trainees interested in those areas. The aim is to engage as wide a range of participants as possible, from the beginner filmmaker to the advanced singer or amateur dancer, from the curious historian to the keen environmentalist or reluctant Irish speaker. All activities will be free, with donations sought for coffees and teas.
