Glow Christmas Festival in Cork

Glow Cork is coming back. This Cork’s festive Christmas celebration and market take place every weekend of December.

Glow cork is located at Bishop Lucey Park in Cork. This is a free family festival composed of various events and attractions, where you will get to experience the magical glow of Christmas. Bring the kids along to see Santa and all his elves in his magical workshop, play some games and experience the joy of Christmas through a child’s eyes. After that why not take a jaunt on a Ferris wheel and take in the gorgeous skyline views of Cork.

After all the excitement of Santa’s workshop, you can chill out in one of the many seating areas, soak up the festive atmosphere and nibble on some of the best local food Cork has to offer from the food stalls. After all that fun, you can pop right across the road to the English Market, where you will find a wide range of gifts to clear the Christmas shopping list fast and give the kids one last treat of a hot chocolate.

If you’re traveling to Cork for a few days, be sure to check what to do in Cork for free as well as things to do with kids.
