Ardgillan Collective Open Studios & Tours of the Castle

Ardgillan Castle and Demesne is Ireland’s hidden gem. Set in spectacular parklands overlooking the Irish Sea, this spectacular heritage site has also become a creative hub to many local talented artists for the past 3 years. Our resident artists will open the doors to their studios to showcase the wealth of creativity that the Ardgillan Collective has to offer. The newly launched Ardgillan Gallery, in the basement of the Castle, has an exciting programme of exhibitions curated by local artist Aisling Dunne.

Visitors can enjoy live music in our Drawing Room, the most extravagant room in the castle, as well as take the opportunity to wander through our tour rooms, which include our dining room, library, morning room and the kitchens.
