Temple Bar Tradfest

Running from 24 - 28th January 2024

The Temple Bar Tradfest first started out in 2006 as a small niche traditional music festival, selling a modest 500 tickets. Fast-forward 18 years to the present and it is now Ireland’s largest and most successful celebration of traditional music, with over 50 live music concerts taking place in some of the best pubs in Temple Bar, as well as key historical landmarks in Dublin.  This year, the festival organisers have gone all out to ensure that Ireland's premier winter music festival is one to remember!
