The HearSay International Audio Arts Festival hosts international award-winning contributors from all disciplines of creative audio; radio features, film sound, sound art, theatre sound, music, audio fiction. Hearsay fosters collaboration & imagination, compelling insights, creative challenges, unique experiences with no name badges. HearSay means passion and free-flowing inspiration rooted in a real sense of community.
Our mission is a simple one: To carve out a unique space to inspire the creative audio community around the world and to enrich the cultural and economic life of our home community in Kilfinane, Co. Limerick, a mountain village in South-West Ireland.
Every two years (excepting those which fall in the middle of a global pandemic), for the four days and nights of the HearSay International Audio Festival, Kilfinane also becomes the home of the worlds finest audio makers (present and future!)
