Cork Community Art Link is celebrating the milestone 20th anniversary of the iconic Dragon of Shandon on Saturday 31st October. The birthday spectacular will be brought to the people of Cork by the numerous volunteers, participants, community partners, and friends who have passionately supported the project since the 36-foot dragon first took to the streets back in 2006.
Cork Community Art Link promises to deliver an unforgettable community spectacle this Halloween. On Samhain night, Saturday 31st October, the dragon, meticulously crafted entirely from tape, will leave its lair to prowl the historic streets of Cork, accompanied by a lively entourage of skeletons, ghouls, and fantastical creatures. These spooky creatures will be collaborating with local organisations including the Cope Foundation, Corlann Blackpool, L'Arche, Enable Ireland, and the National Learning Network, as the parade embarks on a captivating journey between the realms of the living and the dead to honour the rich traditions of Samhain.
The procession will showcase a dazzling showcase of stunning floats, imaginative costumes, eye-catching props, and mesmerising live performances from fire performance company Rogu,
