Overview

About

Milwaukee Irish Fest takes place at Henry Maier Festival Park on the shore of Lake Michigan and bills itself as the largest celebration of Celtic culture in the United States. Across seventeen stages, it features Irish and Celtic music and dance from performers hailing from Ireland and beyond, along with cultural and language workshops. Run by the nonprofit CelticMKE, it extends its mission year-round through a summer school and a dedicated music archive.
