Academy provide excellent practice focused learning opportunities in the field. The festival is presented across a range of Limerick’s cultural venues and institutions including Dance Limerick, Limerick City Gallery of Art, the Belltable, the Irish World Academy of Music and Dance and the Irish Chamber Orchestra at UL.
