Set on 38 rolling acres, the event features 60 acts with over 800 performers from the U.S. and Ireland on seven stages with a range of genres from Celtic rock to traditional ballads.

Culture:

Explore cultural stages featuring storytelling, folklore, music and hands-on workshops. Discover Ireland's traditional instruments while learning to play the fiddle or tin whistle.
