5th June 2025

Cruinniú na nÓg, Ireland’s national day of free creativity for children and young people, is taking place on 7th June across Dublin City and nationwide. This all-island celebration will host over 1,000 free events across the country, celebrating creativity through music, art, circus, storytelling film and more.

Ireland is the only country in the world to have a national day celebrating young people’s creativity. Creative Ireland invites all young people to explore something new, unlock their imagination, and be part of this unique celebration of creativity and expression.

Across Dublin City young people will be invited to take part in exciting creative activities including workshops, performances and exhibitions. As part of Cruinniú na nÓg 2025 Unsung Youth will return to Ballyfermot Civic Park from 2pm – 6pm. This annual event hosted by FamiliBase in collaboration with Dublin City Council is organised, programmed and performed by young local talent. Now in its seventh year, Unsung Youth is the perfect family-friendly day out. 

Other highlights in Dublin City include sensory creative play for babies and toddlers by Joanna and Beth Parkes at Walkinstown Library, music workshops for d/Deaf and CODA young people in Cabra, photography workshops by Dreamers Reality and an exhibition exploring AI in collaboration with the ADAPT Centre at DCU.
