Nominations are now open for the 2026 National Heritage Week Awards, with communities, organisations and individuals across County Wexford being encouraged to take part.
A total of 106 events were held in Wexford during this year’s National Heritage Week, which was the largest programme in the event’s history, with more than 2,600 events taking place nationwide.
The County Award will recognise the best event or project in Wexford based on how it raised awareness of heritage, engaged the community and promoted its work.
Last year, Killanne Development Group won the Wexford County Award for its event Killanne, Where Heroes and Heritage are the Foundations of our Community.
Other categories include Heritage at Risk, Inclusive Heritage, Wild Child, Water Heritage, Irish Language, Sustainability and Climate, and the Heritage Hero Award.
