Open Call | EU Presidency Culture Programme 2026 from Culture Ireland
Culture Ireland invites expressions of interest from artists and touring companies to participate in a cultural programme marking Ireland’s Presidency of the Council of the European Union, which will take place during the second half of 2026.
As part of this initiative, Culture Ireland will curate a dynamic and high-quality programme of contemporary Irish arts and culture to be presented across Europe from July to December 2026.
Applications are invited from professional artists and companies and international presenters. Culture Ireland provides grant funding to support costs directly related to the international presentation of events, including travel, transport, accommodation, and subsistence. Applications are welcome from artists and companies across the island of Ireland.
