More than 55,000 people are expected to attend a 10-day festival in Cork which will feature theatre, dance, music and family-friendly events at several venues around the city.

Cork Midsummer Festival June 14-25, 2017. 

Cork Midsummer Festival launches today for 10 days of theatre, art and family fun. Des O’Driscoll selects a few of the upcoming highlights.

When Buzz Aldrin comes to Cork in June, he will give a public talk with a large replica of the lunar surface he once walked upon above his head.

So much fun.
