Fáilte!      Welcome to IrishOmaha.com


This site is a result of our ethnic pride and desire to have a central location where all can access information on a variety of Irish happenings.

We encourage all Irish organizations to contact us so we may share calendar and fundraising activities with the public. In addition to these groups we invite all local Irish artists to notify us of events that would be of interest to our local Irish population. Such information may be posted at no cost at this time...
