As the hush of autumn falls, Islander are delighted to return to the banks of Cork City with the fifth iteration of Quiet Lights this November. It's our favourite time of year, when we get to gather together in the nooks and crannies of Cork City as the quiet of winter settles in.

Quiet Lights is an exciting and well-loved winter festival with a big heart, which aims to shine a light on the new wave of Irish and International folk, traditional, and experimental talent that are quietly forging new paths, recollecting old tales, and creating new stories. There’s a feast of favourites this year, such as Cormac Begley, Lemoncello, Mohammad Syfkhan and Fionn Regan, as well as some exciting new projects such as Ana Palindrome, Morgana (Saint Sister) and a fresh collaboration between Cormac McCarthy & Aoife Ní Bhriain.

We hope to see you in November 🕯️🤍
