Clifden Arts Festival
Wednesday 17th September - Sunday 28th September 2025

Clifden Community Arts Week, celebrating its 48th anniversary in 2025, features a wholesome feast of culture with a mix of poetry, music, theatre, dance and visual arts.
A great celebration of the Arts, events include poetry readings, lectures, recitals, traditional music, concerts, and comedy – all enjoyed in a wonderful relaxed atmosphere in one of the most beautiful places on the West Coast.
Take walks during the day, enjoy the lovely Autumn colours, eat in a great choice of restaurants, and then be inspired by Ireland’s best artists as they mingle and talk with the local community and visitors alike.
The longest-running community arts festival in Ireland, Clifden Community Arts Festival, now heading into its 48th year will take place from September 17-28 and yet again promises to have something to excite everyone in the 2025 programme.
