The 2025 Cedar Awards took place at Kilkenny's Pembroke Hotel earlier this month. 

The Cedar Awards are a tradition created by the Irish Lebanese Cultural Foundation to honour remarkable personalities of the Lebanese Community and further cultural achievers who impacted on the promulgation of Lebanese heritage or the promotion of Lebanon.

This year's honourees were linguist Fadi Bou Karam, retired Lieutenant General Jim Sreenan, Dr. Piaras MacEinri, and Professor Habib Chamoun Nicholas. A cedar tree will be planted in Mount Lebanon in their honour. 

Last year's ceremony was cancelled due to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
