Programme Mountshannon Arts Festival

Thursday 28 May to Monday 1 June 2026

This year, we embrace the theme of flight.

Art, in its many forms, has the power to elevate anyone, artist and audience alike.

Dance is particularly close to that feeling of soaring. And our programme is filled with those moments embodying the spirit of choreographer Pearl Primus’s words, “Dance is strong magic. The body can fly without wings”.

We are also proud to celebrate the 30th edition of Mountshannon Arts Festival. And we thank all the passionate committee members from previous years, who have soared through the sky of creativity and helped us land with truly unique festivals.

Here's to another year of unforgettable moments and shared experiences that lift our spirits and broaden our horizons.

Welcome to the 30th edition of the Mountshannon Arts Festival - where the sky is not the limit, but the beginning of our journey.
