The AISTEAR 2030 projects which are hosted by the seven Regional Resource Centres of Comhaltas, is a major part of the roll out of the new Comhaltas Prospectus. AISTEAR, meaning journey, is the goal of Comhaltas up to 2030. 

AISTEAR 2030 will have two star concerts, two lectures and two archive events. All of these will be free of charge to the general public and special invited guests. 

The AISTEAR 2030 project in the Regional Centres will provide an opportunity for those attending to learn about the imaginative and ambitious plans of Comhaltas for the fortunes and future of our revered cultural traditions: an echo of the momentous journey from the founding of Comhaltas in 1951 to the heights to which these traditions have ascended. Fleadh 2023 attracted 600,000 people, 15,000 performers and generated €60,000,000 for the economy! 

The Prospectus was launched by Iar-Uachtarán na hÉireann Dr. Mary McAleese in a riveting address in which she said that the PROSPECTUS reflects the “70 years of serious investment by Comhaltas in the promotion and development of our heritage”. She went on to say: “Comhaltas knows our Irish heritage like no other organisation”.
