Some things change. Some things stay exactly the same. ☘️

Ten years ago, Emma and Charlotte were taking the stage as some the youngest performers at our pavilion—today they’re representing us as our incredible youth ambassadors!

Here’s to the friendships, the dancing, and a decade of Folklorama memories. 💚

You came for the dancing, the music and the craic… but you might just leave knowing something you didn’t know before. 👀☘️

One of our favourite things about Folklorama is that you can celebrate a culture while learning a little more about what makes it so special.

Our incredible Cultural Display Coordinators have filled the Irish Pavilion with plenty to discover, so here are five things to keep an eye out for while you’re exploring; you just might leave with a few new Irish facts in your back pocket. 😉

Last to bed, early to rise! Our team had a blast this morning chatting with Ainsley McPhail on CTV Morning Live about what visitors can expect at our pavilion this year. ☘️🍻🎶

A huge thank you to our incredible team for making mornings like this happen. It takes time, talent, and a whole lot of heart to bring the Irish Pavilion to life—and from our dancers and musicians to our coordinators and volunteers, everyone gives all three so generously. (Even before coffee. ☕💚)

Question: Just how many times does the McDonnell School of Irish Dance manage to change costumes in a single show at the Irish Pavilion?

Drop your guess below! 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

As dazzling as these dresses are, they’re also works of art. Many are inspired by the intricate Celtic illumination Art found in the Book of Kells, carrying centuries of Irish artistry from the page to the stage. ☘️✨

We’ll reveal the correct response soon. Choose wisely… your pride is on the line. 😉

WINNIPEG! We missed you, did you miss us? 😉💚

We are only eight short sleeps away from the first day of Folklorama 2026 and we are SO excited to show you what our team has been working to put together for you this year.

How many of you have heard of Celtic Illumination Art? 🙋‍♀️🙋This medieval Christian art form was used to decorate handwritten manuscripts in Ireland and Britain between the 6th and 9th centuries. Created by monks, these stunning works—including the Book of Kells, the Lindisfarne Gospels and the Book of Durrow—are known for their elaborate designs and mesmerizing patterns rather than realistic depth. Respectfully, AI could never. 😏

Featuring performances from our very own McDonnell School of Irish Dance and crowd favourite, Encore, we are excited to welcome you back to our little slice of Ireland.
