Tour Operators
The evening is a wonderful introduction to Irish folklore for any tour group visiting Dublin.
It will enrich their experience of Ireland by bringing to life the history
of the people and connect them to that older Ireland that so many want to experience
but find more and more difficult to do so in today’s modern age.
Irish Folks Tours are happy to custom design the evening around your needs.
For example they can give just one talk focusing on storytelling and then have Irish dancers come in and perform for your group.
Your guests are then free to make their way downstairs and enjoy the live music in one of Dublin’s best known traditional music venues.
Company Social Nights
The evening is the perfect option for a staff night out with a difference
or for any company entertaining overseas clients. It allows Irish people to reconnect with their heritage.
It also helps any overseas employees or clients gain a greater understanding of Ireland’s past
and how this has helped to shape the character and culture of Irish people today.
The evening can also be custom designed around your needs. For example we can just do one talk that focuses on the storytelling and then have Irish dancers come in to entertain your group and even get some of them up to dance!
If you have a group that would like to attend the evening Irish Folk Tours will be happy to look after you.
Evening out with a Group of Friends
The Food, Folk and Fairies evening is a wonderful option for any Irish social clubs or group of friends that like to come together for an evening meal every once in a while and are looking for something different.
You get plenty of time to catch up with each other over dinner and then in between each course you can relax and reconnect with your past. Many Irish people
who have enjoyed the evening say that it filled in a lot of gaps in their knowledge of Irish folklore and at the same time they had a great night out with friends.
