Tailteann Games

Ireland’s greatest gathering is being brought back to life.

For a thousand years, the Tailteann Games were Ireland’s great meeting place. Clans competed, poets performed, and marriages were made under one sky.

September 20 at Kells Priory, the spirit of the Games returns in a living revival of Irish sport, music, and culture. From stone lifting to storytelling, hurling to harp, every moment will be drawn from tradition, memory, mythology.

Tailteann Games is an ancient cultural festival, combining sport, feasting and music.
