  • Events List April 1974-June 2013
    Irish Heritage Irish Heritage was established in 1974 by Ethna and Charles Kennedy to promote the best of Irish and Anglo-Irish music, literature and drama to audiences in Britain. It had its first performance on 4th April 1974 in the Hall of the Inner Temple in London – a bi-centenary tribute to Oliver Goldsmith. Ethna and Charles recognised, at the time, the need to enhance the image of Ireland and its cultural heritage through the promotion of high quality musical and other artistic events. From the beginning they set a standard of professional performances which has endured to this day. Charles Kennedy died in 1979 but Ethna has remained as Artistic Director and is the driving force of Irish Heritage. The listing of events below is a reminder of the breadth and variety of performances down through the years. A separate listing of the artists who have appeared in Irish Heritage performances has also been produced and is also displayed on this website. These listings are up to date as at June 2013 and have been compiled from records held by Ethna and Committee members. We regret if there are any omissions or errors.
