#LIF2018 brochure revealed

Liverpool Irish Festival’s annual brochure is here. Physical copies are available in all the usual places around Liverpool. We hope you enjoy browsing our programme.


We know you have been patient. We know you want to buy your tickets early… and now you can!


We have been working all year to mount this programme, develop the theme and share it with you and now it is here! The brochure is now available here.

Accessible using the slider below, we recommend using this link as it also divides the brochure in to the various stories you can flick though. However, if you prefer to download a PDF version, you can do so here.

We hope you’ll prebook for some of the events and join us for the free ones. Particularly special to us this year are the launch at the Liverpol Irish Centre, Kíla (supported by Liverpool City Council‘s Festival Enhancement Fund and our Family activities.

We hope to see you at #LIF2018.


Please note: Schedule changes
Responding to Robert Tressell and Kitty will take place on Thurs 25 Oct NOT Wed 24 Oct as advertised in the #LIF2018 brichure and some listings. All other details remain unchanged. We apologise for any confusion.


Corrections to #LIF2018 brochure
The following amendments have been made to the programme or to errors cited in the #LIF2018 festival brochure:
Page 17: Priorland will no longer headline the O’Neill’s Hooley. A replacement band is being found and will be suitably lively and gregarious! We apologise for any disappointment caused.
Page 9: Paragraph 1 should have read ‘mental illnesses of those left behind’
Page 21: Both the Responding to Tressell and Kitty events were broadcast as being on Wed 24 Oct. This is incorrect. Both will take place on Thurs 25 Oct. All other details were correct.
Page 22: The Biggest Show in the Country was listed as Venue TBC and time 3pm. This has changed. This will now be at 11am at the Royal Court, bookable through liverpoolirishfestival.com
Page 24: Celtic Animation Film Festival: Web address should have read liverpoolirishfestival.com and the times have been amended from 11am-6pm to 1pm-5pm. Additionally, sincere apologies to director Eleonora Asparuhova for the incorrect spelling of her name.
Page 31: The Ticket Quarter article featured a typing error- the email address offered should have read [email protected] We apologise for this proofing error.
