Welcome to Clandeboye
In August each year, Camerata Ireland return to our home at Clandeboye Estate for a jam packed festival of music making.
Under the careful direction of Barry Douglas, some of the finest artists from across the globe gather in the surroundings of the 19th century grounds to collaborate, teach, and perform.
During the festival, we also run the Camerata Ireland Academy. This intensive one-week course gives Ireland's brightest student musicians the opportunity to learn from our top soloists, play concerts together, and compete for a range of bursaries to further their musical studies.
It's our favourite time of the year, and we really hope that you can join us for a concert or two this August.
