WELCOME TO SHORELINES

Welcome to Shorelines Arts Festival 2023 for a feast of craic, music, drama, exhibitions, workshops and more! 

We are delighted to stage Irish Folk Award winners Ye Vagabonds as well as the infused hypnotic tones of Cathy Davey & her band in concert. You can hear musician & broadcaster Peter Browne present his Gramophone Concert and tune into an afternoon of popular musical classics with What a Wonderful World or croon away to the Songs and Stories of Percy French.

Theatre performances include the ever-popular Seamus O’Rourke with his latest show The Ballad of Mossy Flood and newcomer Dee Keogh’s Why I haven’t met Oprah, Yet.

For literary fans, we have Western Words with poets Amy Barry, Noelle Lynskey & Luke Morgan, A Century of Brendan celebrating Behan’s 100th birthday and Invisible Threads with author, Marguerite MacCurtin. Doire Press make a welcome return with Sunday Stories & Tunes and a veritable feast of Visual Arts awaits you in the Galleries at the Workhouse & Portumna Castle.

The festival is rounded off with a wide range of Workshops, Street & Family entertainment, Talks, Schools Programme, and
we welcome the return of Shorelines Film Shorts & Documentaries. 

So get booking as all tickets are online (except where free or otherwise stated) and encourage your family, relatives and friends to join us in Portumna for a weekend of entertainment, joy and fun!

Thanks to all for the continued support of the Arts Council, Galway County Council Arts Office and our local sponsors, friends and volunteers.
