YouthQuake 2025 – Fitzgerald’s Park Takeover!
21st June 2025, 1-5pm | Fitzgerald’s Park | Free
We’re thrilled to announce that Sauti Studios and CMC youth from the Cork Migrant Centre, Nano Nagle Place, will be part of YouthQuake – a powerful youth-led takeover of Fitzgerald’s Park as part of this year’s Cork Midsummer Festival.
Expect an electrifying day of music, movement, workshops, and creative celebration, all driven by the energy and vision of Cork’s young people. From original tracks and spoken word to live DJ sets and interactive art spaces, this vibrant event is a showcase of belonging, expression, and inter-community collaboration.
Curated by the Midsummer Youth Assembly, YouthQuake brings together diverse voices and youth groups from across the city, including energetic performances by our own Sauti Studios artists – celebrating what it means to be young, creative, and connected.
Join drop-in sessions in art, writing, and music, explore your creative spark, and experience a day filled with street food, games, culture, and summer spraoi. It’s free, inclusive, and open to all.
YouthQuake is more than a performance—it’s a movement. And community is the energy we’re bringing.
Presented as part of Creative Parks, a partnership between Cork City Council’s Culture and Creativity Team and Cork Midsummer Festival. Supported by Creative Ireland and CYPSC.
