A Colourful Life Festival
When
18 July - 29 August 2026
A long summer season of talks rather than one weekend.
Runs every year
Where
Kenmare
A Colourful Life runs at the Park Hotel Kenmare from 18 July to 29 August 2026. It is a season rather than a weekend: a run of talks and conversations with Irish broadcasters, writers, cooks, artists and designers, spread across six weeks.
Events are individually ticketed and held at the hotel, so this is an evening fixture rather than something you stumble into on the street.
It suits a Kenmare stay in high summer, particularly if the weather turns. Check the current line-up and book ahead, as individual talks sell out.
