Baboró International Arts Festival for Children

More than Just Another Festival

Baboró may very well be the flagship international arts festival for children and families in Ireland, with a host of exciting performances and activities in Galway in October, but we've become a bit more than that over the last few years.  We bring information on all sorts of opportunities - for performance, for funding, for networking, for making your voice heard and making a difference.

Regular updates on our News section - below - mean that we broadcast information on opportunities for Parents, Teachers, Children, Young Adults and Artists - so keep an eye on our News Section and get involved in those opportunities.

New International Encounter
"The trilogy, staged on successive nights, was part of Baboró, Galway's annual arts festival for children, which celebrates its 12th birthday this year. The NIE trilogy is one of the highlights of Galway's theatrical year thus far."
