ようこそ ＆ Welcome

Foyle Obon is a pioneering Japanese arts organisation leading the way in the development and delivery of Japanese arts in Northern Ireland.

We focus on local and international partnership building, commissioning and education projects, supporting emerging and established artists and building community and intercultural understanding. We are home to the Foyle Obon Japanese Festival – the only Obon festival in Europe and the only place in Northern Ireland where you can get good Kakigori shaved ice!
