Company Description
Ballyshannon Folk & Traditional Music Festival Company Limited by Guarantee is the charitable organisation that curates Ireland's oldest folk and traditional music festival. Based in Ballyshannon, County Donegal, on the Wild Atlantic Way, the company brings together musicians, singers and audiences each August Bank Holiday to celebrate the very best of traditional and folk music along the banks of the River Erne.
The festival's core offering is a multi-day programme of live performances, workshops and a showcase platform for emerging artists. Ticket options include weekend passes and a "50 for 50" three-year festival ticket, while the annual Showcase invites musicians to apply for performance slots, providing a springboard for talent across Ireland and beyond. By delivering a vibrant, community-focused event, the organisation sustains a cultural legacy that has endured for 48 years and continues to create lasting memories for both performers and fans.
