Balbriggan Summerfest is returning once again this year from 27th May to 1st June 2025 with a packed programme of events for all the family. Running since 2009, Balbriggan Summerfest has grown into a vibrant community event that brings together residents, local groups, organisations and visitors to celebrate what Balbriggan has to offer. From live music, carnival fun, family-friendly events, sports and seaside traditions, the festival showcases the wonderful spirit of the community.

Balbriggan Summerfest has always been about people, neighbours, families, local clubs, organisations and volunteers coming together to create memories for everyone. It gives local people a platform to showcase their talents in music, art, craft, food and sports. The Balbriggan Summerfest Committee make every effort to keep everything local, reflecting the many cultures, traditions and talents that make the town such a vibrant and welcoming place. By celebrating what is unique about Balbriggan, the festival creates community pride and encourages people to take part by getting involved or just simply enjoying the festivities.

With the current regeneration projects happening across the town, the festival location has changed to Bremore Castle which means that some of the festival favourites such as the Duck Derby have had to be put on hold. However, over the week, the community and visitors can enjoy a varied line up of events such as the Summerfest 5k, charity football match, fireworks display, Bremore Castle tours, Blessing of the Boats, live music, carnival, vibrant food and craft market and much more.Our festival is not just about events, it is about bringing together the community, making memories and highlighting all that is great about our town.
