Different Strokes for Different Folks
with Dave Flynn, Léda, Buíoch and The Craic Addicts and Festival Session.
Get ready to be swept away by the vibrant melodies and rhythms of Ireland! The motto of the Irish Folk Festival (IFF) 2025 is "Different Strokes for Different Folks". Once again, we are celebrating the diversity of Irish culture. The IFF is a kaleidoscope of sounds that reflects the many facets of the Emerald Isle. As the saying goes? "There's no accounting for taste." But that's exactly what makes Irish music so exciting - there are at least as many styles as there are visitors' preferences, which the IFF brings together in a colorful selection. But one thing is certain: there is no arguing about the craftsmanship, virtuosity and authenticity of the invited artists.
Whether soulful ballads, rousing jigs and reels or modern interpretations of old melodies - there is something for everyone. No matter whether you are a traditionalist or a seeker of modern fusions. The line-up promises a musical journey as diverse as the shades of green in Ireland. It's a celebration where every note, every chord and every rhythm tells a different story - just like the people who come together to tell and experience it.
So why settle for the ordinary when you can experience the extraordinary? The IFF is not just an event - it's a celebration of all those individual sounds that make each of us dance to our own rhythm! Especially at the end at the legendary session. All the bands and artists, no matter how different, come together in a unison that gives everyone an overdose of happy hormones.
We look forward to seeing you there, where the music is as warm as an Irish welcome and as varied as the stories told by the fireside of a cozy pub.
End of event: approx. 22:45 | Program with break
