The Irish Cultural Centre in Canton, MA is a 61-acre hub for all things Irish, built with love by the local Irish and Irish American community.

Backed in part by the Irish government, it's one of the biggest Irish centers in the U.S., open year-round and welcoming to anyone who wants a proper taste of Ireland.
Founded in 1937, the Éire Society of Boston promotes Irish culture, arts, language, and history. Open to all, it's a non-political, non-sectarian group that honors contributions by Irish and Irish-Americans through events, lectures, and its prestigious Gold Medal Award.
