Culture Month 2025
Culture Month is our annual programme celebrating culture and heritage from Cushendun, Ireland and beyond.
Across the month of September (and into October this year) we are delighted to offer a range of live music, interactive workshops, theatre, talks, and exhibitions.
This year we welcome the Ulster Orchestra, Fergal Keane, Patrick Casement & Leo Keohane, as we celebrate the stories of characters such as Robert Emmet, Patricia Mulholland and more.
We are grateful to Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council for supporting this year’s programme and look forward to your company at the Old Church Centre.
This year we are pleased to offer Earlybird prices on a number of our events. Individual discounts apply until 14 days before those events. We also have under 18s tickets at £5 for those young folk who are keen to join in.
