Spectacular free audio-visual show coming to Kilkenny
One of the most eagerly anticipated events in the Kilkenny Arts Festival calendar!
Light Up the Castle, the spectacular audio-visual show projecting images onto the walls of Kilkenny Castle, has become one of the most eagerly anticipated events in the Kilkenny Arts Festival calendar.
Each year presents a brand-new spectacular, projected onto the castle as night falls.
For this year’s show, Light Up the Castle: SIX SIDES SAWN, the festival has commissioned video artist and filmmaker Jack Phelan to deliver a playful tribute to the art of illusion.
Sprinkling a little magic of his own, Phelan presents the castle as you’ve never seen it before.
