If you’ve never been to a Fleadh, now’s your chance. And if you have been before, you already know that this is one of the liveliest, most joyful weeks on the Irish calendar. From 3rd to 10th August 2025, Wexford will be taken over by the sound of traditional Irish music — and it’s going to be magic.

The Fleadh is all about music, but it’s also about people, stories, late-night sessions, and the kind of energy you can’t really explain unless you’ve been there.

• Musicians of all ages gathered on street corners, fiddles and flutes in hand
• Céilí dancing breaking out in town squares
• Competitions full of jaw-dropping young talent
• Pubs overflowing with tunes, laughter, and sing-song’s

Wexford is the perfect host town. With its welcoming streets, seaside charm, and love for a good party, it’s the ideal setting for a week of trad, culture, and craic. The whole place turns into one big, buzzing, music-filled village where everyone’s welcome — whether you’re a seasoned session regular or just along for the ride.

So clear your calendar, rally your friends, and get yourself to Wexford this August. You won’t regret it.
