Are you a festival maker, producer, or arts programmer?
Join us for a relaxed, conversation-led networking panel that brings together festival producers and programmers from across Dublin and nationally to reflect on the practical and creative challenges of producing arts and festivals. Together, we’ll exchange knowledge, share strategies, and consider how we sustain bold artistic work in Ireland’s current cultural context.

The event will centre on networking, peer learning, and critical discussion around the challenges of creating and sustaining arts events and festivals across Ireland, fostering stronger connections between those doing this vital work.
Full schedule and the panelists will be announced soon!
