Cashel Arts Festival

A Celebration of Culture in the Heart of Cashel

Every autumn, the town of Cashel is transformed into a vibrant hub of creativity during the Cashel Arts Festival. This four-day event showcases a rich tapestry of contemporary arts, set against the awe-inspiring backdrop of the Rock of Cashel and the town’s storied heritage sites.

Guests of Cashel Palace can immerse themselves in a thoughtfully curated programme featuring live music, dance, visual arts, theatre, film, literature, and family-friendly events. The festival’s inclusive ethos ensures broad appeal, with many events free of charge and others offering special concessions.

Whether you’re seeking a captivating performance, a hands-on workshop, or simply a new cultural perspective, the Cashel Arts Festival offers something truly special. Community is at the heart of this festival, and its strong ties to local groups create an authentic and welcoming atmosphere.

Now in its 23rd year, the festival continues to champion Irish artists and provide a platform for creative expression. For those staying at Cashel Palace, it’s a unique opportunity to explore the cultural spirit of Cashel while enjoying the comfort and elegance of our historic hotel.
