City of Dublin events director Alison LeRoy joins Craft to tell us about the Dublin Irish Festival, returning July 31\u2013August 2 at Coffman Park. <\/a>Running since 1988, it\u2019s one of the world\u2019s largest Irish festivals, with activities that often surprise first-timers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Family highlights include an area featuring seven Irish dog breeds with presentations and opportunities to meet the dogs; a 10th-century Brian Boru reenactment area with traditional games, weaving, costumes, and photos; and Irish bog ponies! The festival also features demonstrations of sheep (and sometimes geese or duck) herding by dogs, Highland Games like the caber toss and stone lifting, and a Thursday 5K in Downtown Dublin that ends with a street party.
