FUTURE LIMERICK: Climate Arts Festival is an exciting new, week-long, multidisciplinary festival with a finger on the pulse of the defining issues of our time. Ireland’s inaugural Climate Arts Festival commences on Monday, 16th May and features acclaimed play Afloat and an immersive audio experience RISING along the River Shannon, as well as events in various central locations including Lime Tree Theatre, Belltable, Dolan’s and People’s Park.

The ambition for this inaugural festival is to use art and creativity to engage the wider  community in Limerick and beyond on the issues of sustainability and climate change and to spark debate on what a low-carbon future could look like.
