The Savannah Irish Festival is now in the 20th year of providing a weekend long celebration of Irish Heritage on the 3rd weekend of February. Through the generous private donations of individuals and local companies and the work of an all-volunteer committee, the festival has brought to the stage many of the top Irish musical acts, showcased the history and literature of Ireland, and delighted in the performances of the hundreds of young Irish dancers who have taken the stage. Every donation makes a difference!
