45th Annual Festival

Sunday the 5th August signals the start of the much loved annual Clonmany Festival. We are now in our 45th year. Once again this family event is a week of summer fun for all ages. This is Irelands longest running and best known family festival and is situated in the beautiful village of Clonmany.

Year after year thousands of holiday makers and locals alike enjoy the many events, live music, natural beauty and facilities which go hand in hand with the festival. From raft races and cycling events to treasure hunts and talent competitions, the festival has something to offer everyone and is an event which you will find yourself returning to again and again.

The Clonmany Festival to date has been in existence for 45 successful years, an annual event that has become entwined in local traditions and culture. The festival is somewhat unique in that it has always catered for the entire family, with something to offer for all age groups and a wide variety of tastes. The First Festival was an emigrants’ Festival. Much of the spirit was due to the generosity of people at home with their time and talent to welcome back the emigrants from England, Scotland and America. This spirit still flourishes to this day, however the emigrants now return from all corners of the globe not just England, Scotland and America.
