Irish Music Festival: Family Fun this June Long Weekend

The afternoon kicks off with a high-energy kids’ disco by Bop till you Drop, setting the tone for a jam-packed session of music and movement. Little ones can let loose in the inspiring toddler playzone by Toddlertastic, while older kids and adults enjoy captivating performances from Celtic Tones and Sydney Session musicians. Don’t miss the incredible Irish dancing displays by Dwyer Whelan’s talented troupe—from the tiniest dancers to elite performers.

While the kids are entertained, grown-ups can indulge in a charcuterie spread from Graze to Go, sip a creamy Guinness, cider or Jameson from the bar, or relax with a hot brew from the coffee cart. There’s even a classic sausage sizzle on hand for an easy family lunch.

With great music, warm community vibes, and entertainment the whole family can enjoy, this festive afternoon is the perfect way to embrace winter together. Don’t miss it!
