Damhsafest is the only International Folk Dance Festival in the Cork Region, in fact it is the only one of its kind in the 32 counties of Ireland. Since its inception in 1995, our festival has hosted close to 30 international folk dance groups. Over these years performances were held in Cork City, as well as towns, both large and small, across the county. Our visitors went home with great memories of Cork and Ireland, and expressed an interest in being invited back again. We are looking forward to having 4 international groups accompanied by local groups participating in the Damhsafest 2010 programme.
