Future Producers 2026 & 2027

Carlow Arts Festival is proud to partner with Promenade on Future Producers, a part-time training and placement opportunity for emerging producers running from December 2026 to November 2027.

Participants will receive training, mentoring and coaching support from Kath Gorman and other team members from Promenade and Kevin Wratten of Split Second (UK) for the equivalent of 16 days between December 2026 and June 2027, including guest sessions from the partners and other experts. They will also have work placement opportunities for up to 12 days during 2027 hosted by the partners.

This paid opportunity is in partnership with Carlow Arts Festival, Fidget Feet, the National Circus Festival of Ireland, Spraoi and 101 Outdoor Arts (UK).

Future Producers 2026/27 is funded by the Arts Council's Creative Production Supports Scheme and is building on Future Producers 2023, first initiated by Fidget Feet with the support of an Arts Council Capacity Building Support Scheme grant.

Deadline for applications: By 12 noon on Wednesday 18th November
