Join us at St. Canice’s Cathedral to celebrate Culture Night 2024. With late entry to St. Canice’s Cathedral,
take the opportunity to see our current exhibition of The Red Book of Ossory, a 700-year-old manuscript
written by the Bishop of Ossory Richard Ledrede, in the 14 th Century.
A fun filled drop-in art workshop for families will take place also in the Cathedral between 5pm and 7pm.
Participants will work with artist Sandra McAllister to create their own print with the theme of The Red
Book of Ossory. This is a drop-in event with no booking required.
If you are curious about the history of the stained-glass windows of St. Canice’s Cathedral, join us for a tour
at 6pm. Each window tells its own unique story amidst their ancient surroundings. To secure a
place on this free tour, see our website for more details.
At 7.30 join one of our bell ringers as they lead you on a behind the scenes tour of the bell tower. This rare
tour will allow visitors to experience first-hand the Bell Tower Room in the heart of St. Canice’s Cathedral.
See the website to also secure a place on this free tour!
Finally, to end the evening of culture, and to follow on from a successful summer residency, tap your feet
along to a live and energetic performance by Ceoltóirí Kilkenny – for the very best of Irish music, song,
dance and storytelling.
