Rialto Community Arts Festival - Programme Launch & Open Mic

The Rialto Community Arts Festival (RCAF) Programme Launch is our addition to the 2026 programme of Culture Date with Dublin 8 (CDD8).

It will mark the official programme launch for the 2026 RCAF festival, taking place from June 18th–21st.

Inspired by this year’s CDD8 theme, Songlines of the City, the evening celebrates the music, stories, and creative voices that emerge from the Rialto community, while building excitement for the Rialto Community Arts Festival in June 2026.

A “Rialto’s Got Talent”-style open mic will invite local performers to share their own “songlines,” exploring how sound and performance shape a sense of place and identity.

The evening will include finger food and refreshments, creating a warm and welcoming community gathering - we hope to see you there!

Tickets are free but pre-booking in advance advised.
