Walking Tour: Irish Traditional Music Tour

Thursday, 22 January 2026 - Friday, 23 January 2026
About this event
There’s no better time to explore Dublin’s musical heritage than during the lively TradFest. Join one of our music-loving guides for a walk through centuries of Irish musical tradition, rooted in our Celtic past yet still thriving today.
Discover how native instruments and styles evolved over time while preserving their unique character. Irish music has also influenced—and been influenced by—other genres, from baroque and classical to rock and beyond. This tour offers a rich insight into that journey. Afterward, why not catch a live TradFest performance to round off your experience?
