Clonsilla Heritage Festival

This event has ended

Clonsilla/Porterstown, Saturday 14th September - Sunday 15th September

This year’s festival, on Saturday 14th & Sunday 15th September, will include some elements from last year, plus other brand new events.

In addition to the very popular canal barge rides, this year you will also be able to try Stand Up Paddle boarding along the canal.

As well as music in Shackleton’s Gardens, we’ll also have an outdoor painting competition (Plein Air) and activities for the kids! We have added a Pop Up Museum of Clonsilla to the mix, which can be viewed all weekend in Beechpark Farm Shop, plus you can take a behind the scenes tour of the farm itself. We’ll repeat the hugely popular tour of Luttrellstown Lake and Glen, as well as adding a guided tour of St Mochta’s Church.

Our final event will be a concert in St Mary’s Church.
