Féile Lachtain 2023 will be officially launched on this Saturday, April 15, at 3pm in Ionad Lachtain Church, Arts and Heritage Centre, Freshford. The festival will be launched by Cllr Pat Fitzpatrick, Chairman of Kilkenny County Council.
The launch will be followed by the first lecture of the year delivered by Siobhan Doyle, author of A History of the GAA in 100 Objects. Siobhán’s address will highlight the objects of Kilkenny interest in her book as well as focusing on some of the items from around the country which caught her attention.
Féile Lachtain was started last year in order to promote St Lachtain’s Church of Ireland as a visitor centre. The church hosted a number of lectures, exhibitions and concerts.
This year’s programme will be announced on Saturday. Harpist Mary Kelly will provide musical entertainment for the launch. All are welcome to attend.
