    The Trail’s vibrant displays will highlight themes of the Festival programme, including music, sustainability, fashion, history and the 1922 Commemoration, and showcase Cork’s rich film and cultural heritage. Keep your eyes peeled for some familiar outfits, including costume designer Sandy Powell’s lavish creation for Olivia Colman’s character Queen Anne in The Favourite, and Lorna Marie Mugan’s sustainably sourced clothing worn by Normal People’s Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar Jones. 

    Follow our online Trail map below and tune in to our accompanying podcasts all while soaking up the Festival atmosphere in the city and enjoying the finest hospitality Cork has to offer.
