The Limerick Lifelong Learning Festival is back!
The festival is a celebration of lifelong learning and promotes all sorts of learning in Limerick through a wide variety of creative, enjoyable and informative events.
Limerick Lifelong Learning Festival has something for everyone - wherever you live, whatever your age is and whatever your particular interests may be. Learning is promoted as fun with events including performances, debates, taster sessions, tours, displays and demonstrations. The free events and activities taking place include Art, IT Skills, Language Tasters, Entrepreneurship, Guided Tours, Open Days, Educational Pathways, Music and Cookery. There are up to 200 FREE events held over the week, across multiple locations across the city and county. The events take place in a variety of venues, indoors and out, including libraries, museums, community centres, parks, colleges, and on the street!
The festival theme this year is ‘Discover Lifelong Learning 2026’. It is also based around the power of connections and will have a particular focus on the fun and joy of learning and family-friendly events.
What are you going to learn this year? Whether you are learning to develop new skills or to grow your career, the festival celebrates lifelong learning and can have a real impact on both your professional and personal development. This year we celebrate 16 years of the festival and Limerick as a UNESCO Learning City-Region.
The festival is being presented by the Learning Limerick Steering Group, which is representative of all the main stakeholders involved in promoting learning across Limerick.
