Skellig Coast Dark Sky Festival

The 5th annual Skellig Coast Dark Sky Festival celebrates the spectacular Kerry International Dark Sky Reserve with a vibrant programme of events for all ages. 

Led by the Caherdaniel Dark Sky Group and supported by volunteers and local communities, this year's festival brings together astronomy, heritage, culture, creativity and nature through talks, workshops, music, storytelling, film, stargazing, astrophotography and outdoor experiences. 

Taking place across Portmagee, Cahersiveen, Ballinskelligs, Dromid, Waterville and Castlecove, the festival invites everyone to discover, celebrate and protect our extraordinary dark skies.
