The Redcastle Sessions is a DVD featuring live performances by folk artist Cara Dillon of songs from her first three solo albums, as well as previously unreleased songs and songs for inclusion on her fourth solo studio album. The DVD was filmed on location in a converted hospital at Redcastle, County Donegal in the Republic of Ireland and in McReynolds Bar, Dungiven, County Londonderry, Northern Ireland. Also included on the DVD is an interview with Dillon and footage of her returning to her parents' home house.

The DVD features 5.1 audio. Also included is a photo gallery of the filming of the DVD.

The original release date for the DVD was June 9th 2008, however due to manufacturing problems, the release was delayed. During Dillon's The Redcastle Sessions Tour in June, she had a special promotion whereby anyone who pre-ordered the DVD received a free copy of her single "If I Prove False" to compensate for the delay.
