How MyMap works
How do I find events in my town?
Choose a county, then add one or more towns in the finder. Set your dates or search by event or venue name. Switch to the map to see where the matching events take place.
Where do the event details come from?
Our directory combines the Fáilte Ireland Events dataset, used under CC BY 4.0, with our own sourced visitor guides. Repeated dates are grouped under one event, and records with conflicting dates or venues are held for checking. The directory was last rebuilt on 24 September 2026; individual guides show their sources and checking dates.
Can I book tickets through MyMap?
Each ticketed event links to the organiser or their chosen ticket provider. Check there for prices, availability and booking terms. MyMap does not sell tickets or confirm that spaces remain.
Does this cover every event in Ireland?
Coverage depends on the events published by our sources. An empty result does not mean nothing is happening in that town. Try nearby towns or different dates, and check the organiser’s daily programme for events running over several days.
