Richmond Barracks

Thank you to everyone who supported our Christmas Fair!

We want to thank our vendors, entertainers, workshop facilitators and everyone who visited the Christmas Fair on Saturday November 26 and Sunday November 27. 

We were thrilled to welcome thousands of people through our doors over the Christmas Fair weekend. The enterprises and social enterprises were brilliantly supported and benefitted from the generosity of all those who came to enjoy the festive occasion. 

Fairs at Richmond Barracks are brought to you by Dublin City Council Culture Company ( which runs Richmond Barracks ) and supported by Dublin South City Partnership with Kilmainham Inchicore Network. These quarterly fairs showcase the quality and creativity of the small businesses, craftspeople, makers and social enterprises abundant in the local area, as well as promoting culture, creativity and conversation.
