The Five Lamps Arts Festival

The Five Lamps Arts Festival celebrates creativity, community, and connection in Dublin’s North East Inner City. Each year the festival brings people together through music, theatre, exhibitions, workshops, and performances that reflect the spirit and diversity of the neighbourhood.

In 2026, we explore the theme of Belonging, the feeling of being in the right place, surrounded by people, stories, and shared cultural experiences. Across venues, streets, and community spaces, artists and audiences come together to create moments of curiosity, inspiration, and joy.

Join us as the North East Inner City becomes a stage for creativity, where everyone is invited to take part, discover new perspectives, and experience the arts in the heart of the community.
