From October 7th to October 14th 2019, dive into another packed programme of theatre, music, literature, comedy, visual arts and workshops guaranteed to inspire joy, creativity and curiosity. Bookville is a free festival for families and children with a diverse programme of events that provides opportunities for children aged 12 and under and their families.

Bookville is brought to you by Kilkenny Arts Office and Kilkenny Library Service supported by the Creative Ireland programme.  Bookville events are countywide across the library network, in the Arts Office on Dean Street and in Butler House on Patrick Street.

This festival would not exist without our audiences and the support that you give to the festival so we look forward to seeing you at Bookville and hope that this festival will inspire children of all ages to become critical thinkers with curious minds.
