About the Festival
Join us in the village of Irishtown for the inaugural celebration of the area's Irish heritage. South-central Pennsylvania is traditionally known for being an area of the State populated by German immigrants but what is less known (and celebrated) is it's Irish heritage. Come join us for the first year of what we hope to be a long-standing tradition. There's plenty of traditional Irish music provided by local bands as well as bagpipes and a harper. Irish dancing will be performed by the Coyle School of Irish dance. We also have many vendors selling gifts direct from Ireland as well as others selling food and drink (yes, we have Guinness!). Have your picture taken with Leprechaun 1, Irishtown Fire Company's green fire truck. Kids may even be able to take a ride around Irishtown as well. The festival site is located less than an hours drive from Harrisburg, the capital of Pennsylvania and less than two hours from major cities such as Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington D.C. Adults: $3, Kids under 12: Free Parking: $1 donation to Irishtown Fire Company
