Event Details

The Lowcountry is coming together for a three-day, family-friendly Irish Festival in February 2017. The goal is to bring all of South Carolina's Irish and Celtic communities together in Charleston as a unified celebration of heritage. The festival will feature authentic Irish music and food, Irish dancing, children's activities and historical insight.

The inaugural Lowcountry Irish Festival will take place Saturday February 11th and Sunday February 12th at Omar Shriners Auditorium in Mt. Pleasant, SC.
