The arts, entertainment, cultural and live events sector in Ireland is large and recognised at home and abroad as a world-leader. It is central to Ireland’s self-image and international profile. It is a sector that is distributed widely across the country, woven into the fabric of local, regional and national life. It means so much to so many people in so many different ways.
