The Dublin Irish Festival is an annual music and cultural festival held since 1988 in Dublin, Ohio. It takes place during the first weekend of August. What began with a handful of dancers and musicians on a tennis court was estimated as of 2007 to attract over 93,000 visitors to eight entertainment stages on 27 acres in and beyond Coffman Park.
