About Our Clubs
Offering Engaging Activities and Opportunities for Young People to SocialiSe and Improve Their Spoken Irish
Cumann na bhFiann, Ireland’s largest nationwide Irish language youth service, offers weekly Irish language youth clubs, regional and national events, and a support service to those looking to start up a local youth service in their area. These services give young people the opportunity to use and improve their spoken Irish outside of the school environment on a social level. Cumann na bhFiann provides opportunities for young people to meet and make friends throughout the country through the medium of Irish while developing a ‘grá’ for the language.
We have over 30 clubs across Ireland, and more coming soon!
