What Is SportsFest?

Dublin City Sport & Wellness Partnership is bringing back Dublin SportsFest for 2023. Dublin SportsFest will take place from 23rd – 29th 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, 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. There is everything from football, swimming, kayaking, cycling, tennis and fitness classes to lesser known sports such as Pickelball.

We will also be linking in with pre-existing events and initiatives such as parkrun which DCSWP and DCC have supported since its inception.

Dublin SportsFest is a hugely powerful initiative to drive participation in within Dublin City.

How to get involved?

SportsFest is an event that caters for every citizen of Dublin and our goal is to get as many people taking part as possible!

For more information on all our Fantastic events taking place over the course of the week and how you can get involved, please follow the link to our website (dcswphub.ie)

Dublin Sportsfest 2024 is coming!

Dublin Sportsfest, Dublin City Sport & Wellbeing Partnership’s flagship annual event celebrating sport and physical activity in our city took place from 23 – 30 September during European Week of Sport 2024.

Sportsfest 2023 - A lookback

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 2023 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.

Change For Life is made possible every year thanks to Heathy Ireland and the many wonderful partnerships DCSWP has fostered with groups and organisations in our communities. However, the success of the programme would not be realised without the spirit of our brave participants. It takes courage to make changes in our lives and for many the programme has sparked life-long changes to their health & wellbeing.
