Meet alpacas, try ancient crafts, and enjoy a full family day out this Easter Monday at King John’s Castle.
Step into The Big Spin – Festival of Fibres, a vibrant celebration of traditional craft and creativity.
Meet friendly alpacas in the castle courtyard, hosted by The Flying Alpaca, and explore the timeless skills of weaving and spinning with the Irish Guild of Weavers, Spinners and Dyers. The Friends of Lace Limerick will also be on hand, showcasing their beautiful work, demonstrating delicate lace-making techniques, and inviting visitors to try a few stitches themselves.
Watch live demonstrations, learn about historic craft techniques, and even try your hand at these skills yourself.
Enjoy full access to the castle’s interactive exhibitions, towers, and courtyard — all included in your admission. Tickets are priced the same as standard castle entry, with a small additional Eventbrite booking fee.
