St. Patrick’s Festival, Dublin today announce the cancellation of our Festival Cultural Programme.
We have taken this decision in line with the wider actions being taken in response to the constantly changing nature of the global health crisis.
We are acting in the best interests of public health and safety and in an effort to play our part in the nationwide efforts to contain the spread of the coronavirus.
While extremely disappointing, our paramount commitment is to the wellbeing of our artists and participants, our audiences and communities and our own Festival team.
It is very important to note, that the Festival’s Cultural Programme is made up of in-house St. Patrick’s Festival events, as well as many events that are presented by external partners.
While the Festival’s own events are being cancelled, other events that appear in the programme may still be proceeding and we support the individual decisions of all our partners regarding their own events.
St. Patrick's Festival events cancelled (as of Thursday March 12 at 12pm):
Full refunds will be made on purchased tickets for all of the following events but please bear with us as we deal with processing a very significant volume of requests.
No further action is required by ticketholders for the moment but if you require further details please contact tickets@stpatricksfestival.ie.
