Culture Ireland is a unit of my Department with responsibility for the promotion of Irish Arts internationally. In doing so, they work with International presenting partners and annually funded bodies to bring high quality Irish arts, across all artforms, to global audiences.
In 2024 Culture Ireland's budget is €7.6 million. An increase of 20% on that budget would cost €1.52 million bringing the total allocation to €9.12 million.
Any changes to the allocation for Culture Ireland in 2025 will be determined as part of the Budget 2025 process.
