Success! We'll keep you up to date

The sun will shine on Irish Festival's terrace this weekend. We'll have a little beer garden out on our city-facing terrace to soak up the sun and excellent music from the Cultur Stage. 

We've also got your little ones their own tent so they don't miss out on the fun, with music and headphones courtesy of Silent Disco Asia - Hong Kong, along with games, drawing and face painting from Soos Doodles (at extra cost) on Sunday 17th.

You can also browse and enjoy the always brilliant Handmade Hong Kong Market and pick up some treats for yourself or others.

Then as the sun sets and the kids are safely tucked up in bed, Irish Festival will unleash the full force of a traditional Irish Session in the heart of Hong Kong with music from Naggin Eejits, Group Electrogene Fanfare Club, Sam Barbour, Connor Hanrahan to Indonesian based group Craic Atau and Pro Bono, to name but a few of the TWENTY-EIGHT acts we have over the weekend. To view the full line-up, click here

A day ticket is $300 and a weekend is $480. Kids 10 and under go free.

Our St. Patrick's Day festival is not what you'd expect. Yes, we'll have beer but it's so much more than that.

We want to show you all the glorious depth of the Irish culture (or cultúr in gaelic). This goes for the kids too, which is why Irish Festival's St. Patrick's Day event will have things for the kids too.

We need your help in naming our Panda Fam. They'll be the mascots for the event and they haven't got names. Head on over to the Facebook page and comment under the image for a chance to WIN festival tickets.
