Informing the Future of Culture NIght
Arts Council publishes new research that underlines Culture Night’s key role in the Irish cultural calendar
The Review, Evaluation and Recommendations to Inform the Future of Culture Night 2026 – 2030 report highlights the popularity of the annual event, which attracts an audience of over one million people across live and digital events and television coverage.
The research also notes an evolution of Culture Night from an urban-focused programme to a “truly national” event, extending into towns, villages and rural areas across Ireland.
Culture Night is brought to you by the Arts Council, in partnership with local authorities and cultural organisations across Ireland. For further information contact the Culture Night coordination team at info@culturenight.ie.
