Fáilte Montana Irish Festival

Start: Friday, September 5, 2025 2:30PM
End: Friday, September 5, 2025 9:30PM

"Fáilte," meaning "welcome" in Irish, is the heart of the Fáilte Montana Irish Festival. Held at Caras Park in Missoula on Friday, September 5, 2025, from 2:30 PM to 9:30 PM, this free community event is a lively celebration of Irish culture and heritage. It's a fantastic day for the whole family, filled with music, dance, food, local beers, sport, and fun. The Fáilte Montana Irish Festival is more than just a party; it's a way to bring awareness to the University of Montana's Irish Studies program and support the cultural and learning opportunities provided by the Friends of Irish Studies in the West. By celebrating together, we help keep these vibrant traditions alive. Whether you're proudly Irish or simply "Irish for the day," we extend a hearty "Céad Míle Fáilte" (one hundred thousand welcomes) to you, family and friends. We hope to see you there!!
