Culture Night Cork

Cork City

Fri 26 Sep 2025 (note: this event has already taken place)

A hugely anticipated, annual, all-Ireland event, the 19th edition of Culture Night will take place on Friday, September 20th. Culture Night/Oíche Chultúir celebrates culture, creativity, and the arts, and seeks to actively promote the belief that our rich and varied culture is alive, treasured, and nurtured in people’s lives, on the day and every day. On September 20th doors will be open later and special and unique events will be specifically programmed at participating locations, all over the City and all FREE of charge.

“Cork has a rich and varied culture which we can celebrate with pride on Culture Night, September 20th. With about eighty venues there is no end of choice, with a variety of events to be enjoyed free for all the family. The only downside is we can't be everywhere at once. Enjoy Cork's culture. Be a part of it.” says Lord Mayor of Cork, Dan Boyle.

From music to visual arts, with literature, dance and more, Culture Night is an unmissable event. Highlights this year include:
