Heritage Week

Heritage is as much about where we’re going as where we’ve come from. So why not spend Heritage Week getting in touch with our past – and having fun in the process?

It’s all around us, yet you can’t quite put your finger on it. It’s the subject of a million conversations, yet something you couldn’t possibly sum it up in a sentence.

It’s heritage. And when it’s Irish heritage we’re talking about, it’s great fun. That’s why Heritage Week (August 21-2920-28), which is coordinated by The Heritage Council is such a fab way to get back in touch with Ireland’s history, landscape, folklore, archaeological sites, arts and language. With over 1,3000 fun, engaging and free activities around the country – ranging from treasure hunts to traditional crafts, heritage walks to historic re-enactments – Heritage Week has something to tempt everyone.
