Expect 1 jam-packed day of unrivalled excitement and entertainment from master magicians, spectacular sword-swallowers, amazing acrobats, surprising stilt-walkers and a cracking-up comedian host - for all ages to enjoy.

Escape the ordinary with immersive live shows in a vibrant colourful carnival environment celebrating the rich, dynamic and diverse creative culture of circus, street arts, comedy and music performance that thrives across Ireland. Promoting joy, energy, sociality and wonder, the mission of Fiestaval is to bring smiles to faces.
