Duhallow Bealtaine Festival

Bealtaine is a month long celebration of being actively retired encouraging anyone over 55 to get out and to try new things

The Duhallow Bealtaine Festival involves all communities, care settings and active retirement groups in the region. The SAOI Network, our actively retired network, want to facilitate a more active social life for older people living in Duhallow who wish to broaden their horizons, become more active and get more involved in their own communities.

Bealtaine is a month long celebration of being actively retired encouraging anyone over 55 to get out and to try new things. This national initiative is devised by Age and Opportunity, who are a national organisation that encourages people to live their lives to the full and achieve their full potential. Bealtaine celebrates and showcases the talents and creativity of both first-time and professional older artists. It encourages older people to go out and try new things. The festival provides an excellent opportunity to communicate talents and traditions between generations.
