Céad míle fáilte!

We want you to have an enjoyable experience at Milwaukee Irish Fest AND feel safe when visiting!

We are evaluating input from the City of Milwaukee and Health Dept. and are monitoring current CDC guidelines. Below you will find some essential information and helpful reminders to assist with your festival plans.

At this time, we are not requiring proof of vaccinations in order to attend the festival (nor proof of negative COVID-19 test). Current CDC guidelines recommend people wear face coverings indoors and in crowded outdoor settings when you are unable to social distance. We strongly encourage our patrons to do their part in following the CDC guidelines and wearing face coverings at the festival.

Ní neart go cur le chéile. There's strength in unity! Let's all do our part in staying healthy and protecting ourselves and others.

 Health Resources 

Current CDC Guidance: Getting vaccinated prevents severe illness, hospitalizations, and death. Unvaccinated people should get vaccinated and continue masking until they are fully vaccinated. With the Delta variant, this is more urgent than ever. The CDC has updated guidance for fully vaccinated people based on new evidence on the Delta variant.
