Cork’s unique festival promotes and celebrates learning of all kinds, across all ages, interests and abilities, from pre-school to post retirement.

The festival’s motto is Investigate, Participate, Celebrate, and the public can do that by watching demonstrations, trying out skills, and seeing others, from the young to the old, show off what they are learning.

Since it started in 2004, the Cork Lifelong Learning Festival has grown from 65 to about 500 different events. During festival week all events are free and accessible to everyone.

Learning is promoted as fun with events including performances, debates, taster sessions, tours, displays, demonstrations. They take place right across Cork in a variety of venues indoors and out, including: Family & Community Centres, libraries, theatres, shopping centres, museums, parks, sportsgrounds, schools and colleges.

They are organised by people all over the city, who get together to run events, many in their local neighbourhoods, opening up their premises to the public to come in and discover the opportunities for learning available.
