Percy French

The Percy French Festival & Summer School is an annual event that takes place in the second week in July and is set in the wonderful historic Georgian building of Castlecoote House in his native county Roscommon.

We have an exciting and diverse programme of lectures, recitals, poems, monologues, music, drama and paintings celebrating the life and times of the multi-talented William Percy French.

The School features prominent speakers covering the historical, cultural, social and political context of his life and works.
