Cathaoirleach of Kerry, Councillor Jim Finucane, shared his support for Culture Night; “Culture Night is a very special night throughout Ireland and the events in Kerry play a very important part in showcasing the talented artists, beautiful landscapes, and significant venues that are in our County. I look forward to going out Friday 22 September and celebrating the very best of what we have in Kerry”
Below is a taste of what’s to come on the night in the county capital.
Imeall//llaemI is an experimental and informal performance concept between sound artists and contemporary circus artists, creating an environment for collaborative artistic experimentation in the gallery of Siamsa Tíre.
Join them on Culture Night, have a drink and a chat and feast your eyes and ears on this improvised conversation between circus artists and sound artists from 9pm onwards.
Participate in a late-night Culture Café tour of participating Café’s with presentations from TEDx Salon, Art in the Park, Music Generation, Classical Delights, West Coast Jazz, Trad in Tralee and lots more entertainment; offering a mix of both indoor and canopied outdoor events.
Meanwhile, Maddens on Milk Market lane will host The OtherSide — a traditional style late-night talk show set in a relaxed setting.
The OtherSide features a wide range of guests from actors, musicians and stand-up comedians to artists, sports people and local legends. It offers a rare opportunity to hear these guests in conversation in a very intimate setting and without an agenda.
