Skibbereen once again pays homage to the vibrant fabric of our community that is the arts and once again we have managed to produce an excellent programme of events with many world-class national and international acts coming to town. Value for money is particularly important in these times and as well as the many free events taking place during the week we have tried to keep everything as reasonable as possible. There really is something for everyone this year and we encourage you to come along and support the festival as often as you can – you’re sure to enjoy it!

This festival would not be happening without the amazing work done by a small group of volunteers who have given a lot of time and effort throughout the year. There’s way too many to thank individually but to everyone who helped in any way at all “Go raibh mile maith agaibh go léir”.
