Save the Date Reminder for Schools: Baboró 2022

Save the Date! We hope you can join us for Baboró 2022, which will take place Friday 14 October - Sunday 23 October in Galway city

The festival team is hard at work putting together an exciting programme of Irish and international performances, workshops and exhibitions for children of all ages. We look forward to sharing more about the festival over the coming months.

The box office will open in early September. In the meantime, keep an eye on Baboró's social media pages, and subscribe to our newsletter, to find out more about this year's festival.

A Return to In Person Events

A Note for Teachers: We know that for many school groups, this may be one of your first class trips in quite some time. We look forward to safely presenting in-person performances and art experiences this autumn.

If you have any questions or concerns about attending an event in person, please email schools@baboro.ie. Your input and questions are greatly appreciated as we continue to prepare for the festival.

If you would like to speak directly to a member of the Baboró team, our dedicated Schools Box Office will open in late August.
