This event is part of OUR SIREN SONG—is Beat Carnival’s exciting coastal arts and climate action project, located on the County Down coastline, with a central focus on the Ards Peninsula and reaching out to other parts of Northern Ireland. Artistic and environmental activities are offered free, as part of an exciting Uk-wide programme and festival, Beach of Dreams.
Our Siren Song is Beat Carnival’s Beach of Dreams project in Northern Ireland. It offers creative programmes on the Ards Peninsula coast that engage local artists and communities in meaningful activities to highlight the beauty, heritage and ecology of our coastline.
The project will culminate with a community arts event at Millisle Beach on 17th May 2025 at 3pm during the UK Beach of Dreams Festival. Our siren will call people to the coast: her song will be a love song for our sea and shore, and a call to action, to preserve this precious resource for future generations.
