Welcome to the official homepage of the Louisville Irish Festival!
There’s one thing about the Irish, we are never happier
than when we are together. That’s the whole purpose
of the Louisville Irish Fest…it’s an excuse to get us all
together.
We are here to share a culture that the more you know about it the more you are bound to appreciate it. It’s deep in beauty and stepped in tradition. Irish art and music are leaping out of the Emerald Isle and spreading around the world. This is a chance for Louisville to sample and revel in it.
It’s a culture to be proud of and to celebrate, so look around and open your eyes, your heart, and your mind.
And we leave you with one thought: If you are lucky enough to be Irish….well…you are lucky enough!
A message from Mayor Jerry Abramson
Dear Friends,
Welcome to Louisville! I am happy to welcome you to the 16th largest city in America for the Louisville Irish Fest. I hope that while you are enjoying the festival you will be able to visit some of the many venues downtown Louisville has to offer.
Louisville has consistently been ranked as one of the nation's most livable cities. Our diverse cultural attractions include the Belle of Louisville, the oldest running steamboat in the nation; an eclectic collection of art galleries and museums, including the Frazier International History Museum, the Louisville Slugger Museum and the Louisville Science Center; the incomparable Muhammad Ali Center and 4th Street Live!, which includes several restaurants and entertainment venues.
Louisville truly offers something for everyone. I hope you enjoy your visit to my hometown and make plans to come back and visit again soon.
Sincerely,
Jerry E. Abramson
Mayor
