History
The Columbus Feis is an annual Irish step-dancing competition that has been held in central Ohio since 1981. The feis was founded by a group of local Irish dancers and musicians who wanted to create a space for people to celebrate Irish culture. In 1988, the first Dublin Irish Festival was held, and the two events have since become a popular tradition in the Columbus area.
Over the years, the Columbus Feis has grown in size and popularity. At its peak, the feis attracted over 1,600 competitors, and the Dublin Irish Festival had over 100,000 visitors. However, the COVID-19 pandemic forced the cancellation of the Columbus Feis in 2020 and relocation to the Dublin Rec. Center in 2021.
With 2025, the Columbus Feis has found a home in the Sports Ohio Field Sports facility. Under new ownership, the facility is make necessary changes to accommodate the many competitors, spectators, judges, musicians, and volunteers who share our passion for celebrating Irish culture in Central Ohio.
