Dublin City Sport & Wellness Partnership is bringing back Dublin SportsFest for 2025. Dublin SportsFest will take place from 23rd – 30th September coinciding with the European Week of Sport. The purpose of Dublin SportsFest is to host a week-long celebration of sport and physical activity in our city and to enable and encourage people to participate regardless of age, gender, ability or background.
There will be 60+ events and activities available which are mostly free of charge and the list will be eclectic to say the least. This year kicks off with our Sport Inclusion Champions day lead-in event and ends with our cross-country run in Sundrive Park. In between there everything from football, swimming, yoga, dance, athletics and fitness classes to growing sports like pickleball.
Dublin SportsFest is a hugely powerful initiative to drive participation in within Dublin City.
SportsFest is an event that caters for every citizen of Dublin and our goal is to get as many people taking part as possible!
If you would like to take part in any of our closed Sportsfest events, contact details for our Sport Officers are listed under each event.

Sportfest is one of the most important events in the DCSWP calendar as it shines a light on the enormously positive impact Dublin City Council’s Sport & Recreation services has on our communities. The over-arching message of Dublin City Sport & Wellbeing Partnership is that sport is for everyone regardless of age, gender, background or ability and with over 60 activities on offer across the week in clubs, DCC sports & leisure facilities, outdoor places and spaces there really was something to inspire us all.
Events like Sportsfest are made possible by our participants and the testimonials we hear from Sportsfest 2024 show just how significant sport is in enriching and enhancing our lives and building healthy, happy and connected communities. We also want to acknowledge our wonderful partners ,both internal and external, and thank them for the role they play, not just in major events like Sportsfest, but in the ongoing delivery of DCSWP programmes.
The fundamental goal of Dublin City Sport and Wellbeing Partnership is to provide opportunities for everyone in our communities to partake in sport and physical activity regardless of age, ability or background, through our dedicated programmes, services and facilities.
