About this Event
32 years ago, an idea was born. From its humble beginnings in 1988, Féile an Phobail has went on to become Irelands Biggest Community Arts Festival and a vital part in the Cultural calendar. This Irish language(and subtitled) documentary talks to the key drivers behind that idea, those that worked and volunteered throughout the last 32 years and looks at how far the festival has travelled from August 1988 to now.
Produced by Dearcán Media in 2018 for BBC Gaeilge, with the support of the Irish Language Broadcast Fund.
32 bliain ó shin a tháinig ann do smaoineamh. Óna thús in 1988, d’éirigh le Féile an Phobail bheith mar an Fhéile Ealaíon Pobail Is Mó in Éirinn agus mar chuid ríthábhachtach den fhéilire cultúrtha. Sa scannán faisnéise seo labharfar leis na príomhspreagthóirí an bhí taobh thiar den smaoineamh sin, chomh maith leis na daoine agus na saorálaithe a d’oibrigh i rith na 32 bliain sin anuas agus amharcfaidh sé ar an dul chun cinn atá déanta ag an fhéile ó Lúnasa 1988 go dtí an lá atá inniu
