At Home and Abroad

In 2020, the IBSBC launched the first annual St. Brigid’s Day Festival (Lá Féile Bríde) with the support of the Consulate General of Ireland, Vancouver.

It is thanks to our generous supporters that we were able to present our inaugural event at Simon Fraser University Harbour Centre in February 2020.

Now, we are absolutely delighted that we can present the 2021 St. Brigid’s Day Festival in week-long virtual format with registration is open to participants across North America and Ireland.

Our festival offers a wide range of voices and viewpoints with many inspiring and thought-provoking insights into the goddess and saint known as Brigid. While she represents the creativity of women, we welcome men to join us and register for any and all of our sessions.

Brid Dunne is the Vice president of the Irish Canadian Chamber of Commerce Vancouver.
