Skibbereen Arts Festival is a non-profit organisation run by a small but dedicated team of volunteers. Our aim is to bring world-class national and international artists to Skibbereen whilst ensuring accessibility to all by keeping ticket prices to a minimum. To help us achieve this goal we continue our ‘Friends of the Festival’ scheme where businesses and individuals can contribute towards the running costs of the festival. All funds raised are used to present and promote the festival, which in turn benefits Skibbereen and local business.
