We are thrilled to announce our brand new partnership with the Birmingham Irish association; the Midlands’ leading charity providing support and cultural services to the Irish community. Their community engagement and outreach covers everything from Social Inclusion, Elders & Dementia Care, and Family Support to Passport Help, Emotional Support (and Mental Wellbeing), and of course, the encouragement and promotion of Irish Culture & Heritage Events.
Check out our full line-up and artists for 2025 here.
So what does this mean for Pairc Summer Series? It means the inclusion of the all-new Irish Village hosted by our friends at the Birmingham Irish association. You’ll find this at the festival grounds positioned underneath stretch tents, tipis, and marquees and will include:
🍀 Irish music workshops – Learn to play the tin whistle and bodhran
🍀 Irish language workshops – learn the Gaelic tongue!
🍀 Traditional Irish music performed live
🍀 Kids GAA & hurling activities
🍀 Irish shop serving up the iconic flavours of Ireland
🍀 Irish cookery classes – try your hand at soda bread making!
As you can imagine, we’re thrilled to be able to bring you this special collaboration; a chance to support the Irish community while learning more about Irish culture, engaging in some fun traditional activities, and exploring the deep rooted Birmingham Irish connection! So grab your mates and join us for an even bigger celebration of Irish music & culture on 23rd – 24th August 2025 🇮🇪🥂🥳
