After being corralled online for two years culture night is back on the streets again on Friday, 23rd September with hundreds of museums and cultural venues opening late.
Culture Night / Oíche Chultúir is one night for us all to come together for a shared experience celebrating the richness and diversity of culture, creativity and the arts from town to town, city to city and coast to coast. Culture Night encompasses the growing eclectic diversity of arts, culture and creativity right across Ireland. Culture Night / Oíche Chultúir spans a sectoral range of culture, arts, heritage, education, hospitality, tourism, health and commercial and corporate enterprise. It is made possible each year through the hard work and support of thousands of people, organisations, venues and institutions – from artists and performing groups to craft workers, studios and workshops; from galleries, museums and theatres to schools, sports clubs and libraries; arts centres, local authorities and community groups to government departments, state agencies, public bodies, transport companies, universities and many more.
Culture Night / Oíche Chultúir is brought to you by The Arts Council, in partnership with local authorities and cultural organisations throughout the island of Ireland and thanks to their continued support all activities are free.
