Irish Fest 2024

Gaelic Park is very excited to host Chicago Gaelic Park Irish Fest once again! We look forward to seeing the smiling faces of this multi-generational event which has been a staple for the Irish American community in Chicago for over 35 years. 

Join us for a fun weekend with 4 stages of entertainment, including a performing arts stage. We are very proud and grateful that our Festival has always been a safe family event. We will be offering a Leprechaun Stage (Children's Tent) with multiple activities for the younger generations to enjoy and this year children under 12 will have free admission when accompanied by an adult with a paid ticket.
