Irish Presidency Opening Concert — Réaltbhuíonta | Constellations

Join us for the opening concert marking Ireland’s Presidency of the Council of the European Union 2026.

Réaltbhuíonta, meaning "constellations" or literally "a band of stars," unfolds through a series of performances, with leading musicians, dancers and artists presenting contemporary traditional music as a living, evolving form.

Réaltbhuíonta goes beyond its Irish traditions with global influences, enriched by dance and spoken word, offering a dynamic expression of Ireland’s contemporary cultural voice.

The concert forms part of Cultúr 2026, a programme celebrating the richness and diversity of Irish arts across Europe.

Curated by the Centre Culturel Irlandais, it brings together leading musicians, dancers, and artists to reflect a living culture shaped by creativity, collaboration, and exchange.

Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to celebrate traditional Irish music through a contemporary lens.
