VERY VERY IMPORTANT: OUR COVID-SAFE MINI-TENTS ACCOMMODATE ONE FAMILY (OR ADULT-ACCOMPANIED POD) OF MAX FOUR PERSONS.

WHEN YOU BOOK, YOU BOOK ONE GROUP TICKET FOR THE POD – NOT ONE TICKET PER INDIVIDUAL PERSON

Hosted with the support of Fingal County Council Events this is a high-quality festival-within-a-festival aimed at our very youngest arts audiences and participants! As with the events for older age groups – a sense of place / local history/people is at the heart of it!

ALL EVENTS ARE FREE AND ARE REPEATED OVER THE 2 DAYS OF THE FESTIVAL.

Click on the “SELECT A DATE” link above and then book separately for the event(s)most suited to your family or pod:

Make sure to book for the correct day and time!!! The events are:

(0-9 months) STORYTELLING: Silver Tree Story Performance – What will you wish for your baby for the future in Lusk?

(1-3 years) MUSIC: Let’s Sing Together, with RebeccaGilbert (Lullabies we used to sing)

(3-6 years) VISUAL ART: Decorate the cardboard houses with Akvile and build Lusk as it used to be.

(Families 0-6years) STORYTELLING / MUSIC / VISUAL ART: THE SEAWEED WARS Recreate and role-play as families look for the longest piece of seaweed and hide it in their own ‘camp’. Create seaweed monsters together and film a short stop motion of the monsters fighting at the island. (Inspired by the 19th century Fingal Seaweed rights disputes)

* The exception is the opening Buggy Parade which takes place on Saturday 14th only at 10.00.
