The Irish Folk Festival

In the organizer's words:

Golddust In Your Pocket

The 2026 edition of the IRISH FOLK FESTIVAL features four program items that couldn't be more different: On October 25, Brian Leach, Brian Haitz & Brendan Mullholland, Astro Bloc and The Outcast Crew will do the honors at the Theaterhaus in Stuttgart.

Irish tradition is like a battery that has been recharging itself for centuries. The energy and joie de vivre that you get from it flows back into it with every session, with every concert and keeps the cycle going. Those who take part in it give a lot and receive a lot in return. Happiness that you can share with others is always stronger than that which you experience alone. It's fascinating that tradition is simply there and that you can share in it so easily, even though everything in our world is only getting more expensive. It is "gold dust in your pocket".

We look forward to seeing you! At the IRISH FOLK FESTIVAL, of course, with four program items that couldn't be more different, but which combine to form a dazzling rainbow during the session as the highlight of the evening:

BRIAN LEACH - Master of the hammered dulcimer

BRIAN HAITZ & BRENDAN MULHOLLAND - A duo of many sounds

ASTRO BLOC - A dynamic new folk band

THE OUTCAST CREW - The godfathers of punky folk

An Irish myth says that a treasure is hidden at the end of the rainbow. To this day, this treasure is a symbol of longing, happiness and the dream of the unattainable. And perhaps that is precisely what has always fascinated us: That we set out on a quest - knowing full well that the end of the rainbow can never be found. Come with us on the search!
