BAF is a 10 day annual event. It is highly regarded for its visual arts, with well-established as well as young and emerging talent featuring in the group exhibition.
Works by some of the very best contemporary painters and sculptors in Ireland are included. Boyle Arts Festival is also renowned for its programme of classical music with concerts by young and established soloists, ensembles and choirs.
Other areas catered for each year include local art exhibitions, jazz, traditional and world music, drama, literature, storytelling and singers nights, comedy, workshops and programmes for children.
It is with regret that it has been decided to cancel Boyle Arts Festival 2020. We were at a very advanced stage of planning for this year's Festival but we are convinced that on the basis of current health authority and Government advice, it would be unsafe to proceed.
We take this decision purely on the grounds of health and safety. We are very conscious of the need to protect our community, our visitors, our audiences, our artists and of course our committee along with our multitude of volunteers and support staff.
We, the BAF organising committee would like to thank all of you for the generations of support thus far. We are especially grateful to all our sponsors and venue providers over the years... but we will be back in 2021, even bigger and better.
The provisional dates for the next Boyle Arts Festival are July 15th to 24th 2021.
