‘I encourage all Irish women in B.C. to come out

and participate in the 2020 St. Brigid's Day Festival Vancouver’

The Consulate General of Ireland in Vancouver is proud to support and participate in the 2020 St. Brigid's Day Festival in Vancouver.

A large part of our role here in British Columbia is to support the Irish community and help promote Irish culture.

St. Brigid's Day, being in honour of Ireland's triple goddess and matron Saint, gives us an opportunity to celebrate the important and under-recognised role of Irish women and girls in all aspects of history, mythology and culture.

In order to shine a light on female contribution and participation, the Consulate will facilitate a “Pop-up Illumination” as part of the International HerStory Light Festival which is focussed around St. Brigid's Day.
