As our name implies, our Irish festival also focuses on Minnesota artists and groups. Minnesota has an extraordinary amount of talented Irish artists. We consistently offer attendees a chance to see the best of them – musicians, dancers, authors, singers and more. More than 75 individuals or groups with more than 250 dancers and 140 musicians will sing, dance, perform and present 292 shows, seminars or workshops throughout the weekend.
