Get ready for a lively weekend of Irish music, dancing, and good old-fashioned fun as the Fairfax Irish Festival returns October 16–18!
Some of the Bay Area’s finest Irish musicians and dancers will take over downtown Fairfax, filling local bars, restaurants, shops, and gathering spots with spirited jigs, reels, hornpipes, polkas, waltzes, and traditional Irish tunes.
The three-day celebration features live performances, lively jam sessions, and plenty of toe-tapping fun at eight venues, including Peri’s Bar, Nave’s Bar, Wu Wei Tea Temple, Sorella Cafe, Revolution 9, Sonas Denim, Barefoot Cafe, and the Fairfax Pavilion. All venues are within walking distance, making it easy to hop from one performance to the next. Most locations are family-friendly, too!
Presented by the Fairfax Chamber of Commerce and Fairfax Parks & Recreation, this festive celebration of Irish culture is FREE and open to all. Sláinte!
