At the heart of Cork Mela is the World Stage — a vibrant showcase of music, dance and performance celebrating cultures from across the globe.
Throughout the day, the World Stage comes alive with an exciting programme of performances by local, national and international artists, alongside community groups who call Cork home. From energetic dance and powerful rhythms to soulful melodies and joyful collaborations, the stage offers a rich tapestry of cultural expression.
The World Stage is a place to pause, watch, listen and be inspired — where traditional forms meet contemporary creativity, and where shared moments of performance bring people together. Each act offers a glimpse into the stories, heritage and artistry of the many cultures that make up our communities.
Whether you stay for one performance or spend the whole day soaking up the atmosphere, the World Stage is the beating heart of Cork Mela — a space of celebration, connection and collective joy in the beautiful surroundings of Fitzgerald Park.
