Culture Night is a national day celebrating the richness and diversity of culture in Ireland, which takes place on the third Friday in September. The programme features a wide range of free cultural, creative and arts events for everyone, which aim to engage current audiences and connect with those who haven’t had the opportunity to engage previously, thereby opening up pathways for greater cultural and arts engagement throughout the rest of the year. Culture Night is funded by The Arts Council and has been celebrated in Kerry since 2009.

This year it is taking place on 19th September.

We currently have a call out for event proposals. Go to Arts Forms/Funding for more details.
