The tightrope artist is to put on an awe-inspiring performance at SeaFest 2019, which runs from 7 – 9 June at the Port of Cork, Cork city, walking a 120m tightrope across the River Lee. The high wire will run from the middle of Clontarf Bridge to City Quarter, Lapps Quay.
Celebrating all our oceans have to offer, SeaFest features over 100 free family-friendly events, including cooking demos from top Irish chefs, vessel tours, water sports, and interactive workshops. Presented by Cork City Council and the Marine Coordination Group, it will be a culmination of a weeklong celebration of Ireland’s rich maritime heritage, as the annual Cork Harbour Festival runs from 1 – 9 June.
