Celebrating food, heritage & nature through the Prism of the arts
Welcome to the home of Clonmel Applefest, our annual festival that celebrates the food, heritage and natural environment of Clonmel and environs through the prism of the Arts.
In 2024, the festival will take place from Thursday 26th to the 29th September during which time we plan to collaborate with many local and national artists, crafters, food producers, performers and communities to celebrate the rich cultural, industrial and natural history of Clonmel and promote it as a valued place to live and visit for locals and visitors.
We had two wonderful projects: the Elder of Clonmel part 2 writing project, which explored the lives and wisdoms of some of our Older citizens and OUR SOUL FOOD, a multicultural stitch & talk project around our favourite food memories, which involve sharing food stories and making tablemats and centrepieces our various tables he festial Cruinniù ná Nòg day took place on the 15th June, as did another Wild Child Day during the month of August. Look out for our brochure launch under the Main Guard on August 31st with live music by the Fresh Air Collective. Keep your eyes peeled for our Band in Residence that will cater for all of the bespoke events during the festival week-end. Keep up to date by following us on Instagram and Facebook and put those dates of the 26th to 29th September in your diary! Looking forward to seeing you again soon!
