– Introductory sessions to gaelic football for women and children
– Hurling workshop with challenges and prizes to be won
– Irish dance demonstration thanks to Azur Irish Dance Academy
– Concert with James Hall, young Irish talent
– Company of Jimmy Deenihan, 5-time All-Ireland senior football champion

All followed by a dinner and after-party at Ma Nolan’s Irish Pub, Vieux Nice!
In addition to those mentioned above, we’re proud to count O’Neills, our sports equipment supplier in Ireland, and Roots Bar, who host our famous bi-monthly pub quiz, among our partners for this event.
Come and experience the first ever Azur Gaelic Festival, which promises to be a fun-filled and friendly affair.
