Organisers of the Castleconnell Craft Fair are delighted to have such an impressive line-up of Limerick talent at the fair.  This weekend we welcome over 14 Limerick-based craft workers, proof positive that Limerick is a cradle for creativity and entrepreneurship.  We love to support the creative industry and give quality workmanship a platform.  Buying directly from the makers is surely a treat in itself, knowing that your purchase supports an Irish job.

The Craft Fair is more than just a Craft Fair.  It offers many other attractions to the visitors including:

Limerick’s Junior, Intermediate and Minor camogie teams have done the county proud in the 2014 All-Irelands, and we are privileged to be able to give our visitors a chance to lift all three cups which will be on display at the Craft Fair.

You will also have the opportunity to enter the prize draw for a chance to win one of the unique gift hampers or tickets to see Andrea Bocelli in Dublin next month.

The event is non-profit, with all of the proceeds going to local community groups.
So, visit Castleconnell and be assured of a lovely afternoon out.
