Naperville Irish Fest is a public event organized and coordinated by West Suburban Irish.
The inaugural Naperville Irish Fest was held in 2021. Featuring live Irish music, Irish cultural activities, sport & artisans as well as food & beverages, this year's two-day festival will be held in mid-September at Central Park in downtown Naperville (just 3 short blocks from the Naperville BNSF train stop). If you enjoy a family-friendly festival with an Irish cultural theme, visit WSIrish.org to become a sponsor or buy your tickets to attend.
