Ireland Comes to London.
Celebrate Irish Heritage Day at Fanshawe Pioneer Village
Experience a day filled with Irish music, dance, culture, history, food and family fun as the Irish Benevolent Society welcomes the community to one of London's favourite summer traditions.
Whether you're proudly Irish, Irish by ancestry, or simply Irish for the day, everyone is welcome.
For nearly 150 years, the Irish Benevolent Society has been bringing people together to celebrate Irish heritage, support our community, and create lasting friendships.
Our events, programs and volunteer opportunities are open to everyone who shares an interest in Irish culture and community.
This year marks the beginning of our journey toward celebrating 150 years of community, friendship and Irish pride.
