We’re counting down the days until the front gates open and the annual Dublin Irish Festival is underway! This three-day festival is home to a multitude of attractions for guests of all ages, but what makes them unique is their Irish flare. Irish music, dancing and food are a must, but there’s much more packed into our favorite three days of the year. Don’t miss these five unique attractions that make for a Gaelic good time at the Dublin Irish Festival!
1. Wishing Tree:
Don’t wish upon a star, make a wish upon the Dublin Irish Festival’s wishing tree! Take a piece of paper, write your wish on it and tie it to any branch. Placing a wish on this magical tree’s branches help make it come true in the future. Learn More.
2. Celtic Canines:
Who let the dogs out? Stop by the Celtic Canine area to meet and greet Irish breeds of all descents. Throughout the weekend, chat with some of the Midwest’s top breeders on the history of their dogs, grooming, and learn from training demonstrations.

The Stones of Strength competition is an awe-inspiring display of human capability. Watch and cheer on the champions as they conquer these formidable challenges like the stone toss, overhead stone press, Husafell stone carry and more!
4. Wendy's Wee Folk Area:
The little ones in your clan will love the Wee Folk Area, with more than 20 inflatable rides and activities on two acres. Head to the South End end of the festival to enjoy the fun.
