The festival takes place in the idyllic setting of Lismore Castle, and is supported by other venues in the town of Lismore - Lismore Library, The Heritage Centre and The Red Hall. Festival goers are welcomed to a full festival experience as well programme activities - pop up events, doodlewalls, a Foodie Stableyard, Eason's book tent and activities in the castle gardens for all the family.
