Drogheda - you were amazing! The Leinster Fleadh brought thousands of people, of all ages and backgrounds, to the banks of the Boyne at the weekend and boy, did the town deliver.

As a location for top quality entertainment in a safe and well policed environment, the town was immaculate.

For variety, for dining, for a feel good factor, the place showed exactly what many have been advocating for so long.

From walking tours to historic talks, schools, sporting clubs, campfires, brush dancing, the delights of Oldbridge and Mellifont, and multi cultural inclusion, it was all there.

To those that organised it, to the volunteers, gardai, hardworking hospitality staff, the sponsors and so many, many more, the town owes you a lot.
PR like this provides the framework for advancing Drogheda on a national and international scale, from completing vital infrastructure to seeking investment in trade and hospitality sectors.

Build it and they will come is a classic quote. Drogheda lived up to that in bucket loads last week.

🎶 Band Spotlight: KÍLA to Headline Saturday Night at Céilí Picnic. A set that will shake the town.

This Saturday night at Céilí Picnic, prepare to be lifted off your feet and into the pulse of the earth as KÍLA takes the main stage. If there’s one act you absolutely cannot miss, it’s this one.

Widely considered one of Ireland’s most electrifying live acts, Kíla is the beating heart of modern Irish music. Formed in Dublin in the late ‘80s by a group of fiercely creative school friends, including the legendary Ó Snodaigh brothers, Kíla has spent decades redefining what Irish music can be. Their sound is a wild, ecstatic fusion of traditional Irish roots, global rhythms, and primal energy. Bodhrán, fiddle, flute, pipes, you’ll hear them all, but not as you’ve ever heard them before.

Their music is a celebration: of language (often sung in Irish), of culture, and of raw human connection. It’s ancient and future-facing all at once, and when it comes to live performance, they are in a league of their own. Saturday night will be no electric.

📣 BAND SPOTLIGHT: DABILLA 🎶
🔥 Drogheda’s own rising folktronica duo take the stage this Saturday night at Céilí Picnic!

Blending uilleann pipes, guitar, stomp, and deep bass effects, Dabilla bring a fresh, modern energy to Irish traditional music. Think ancient melodies with an electronic pulse, storytelling rooted in Boyne Valley myth with a sound that hits the soul and the dance floor.

💥 Catch them LIVE supporting the legendary Kíla
📍 Duke Street, Drogheda

🎶✨ BAND SPOTLIGHT: JIGGY ✨🎶

Get ready to light up your Friday night at Céilí Picnic because the phenomenal JIGGY are headlining this weekend during the Leinster Fleadh! 💥🔥

With their high-energy fusion of traditional Irish music, world rhythms, and electronic grooves, this is not your typical trad session, this is a sonic explosion you’ll feel in your bones. 💃🕺

Rooted in the rich rhythms of Irish traditional music, Jiggy is a genre-defying collective that fuses ancient melodies with Indian tabla, African beats, funk, electronica, and modern groove. It’s trad like you’ve never heard it before, bold, global, and impossible not to dance to.

🎸 Band Spotlight: The Cacks

Nestled along the Boyne and hailing from Drogheda with roots in Bettystown, Mornington, Laytown and the surrounding areas, The Cacks are a vibrant seven-piece collective fusing traditional Irish folk, Americana, blues, and alternative rock. Born from a road trip to New Orleans, their sound is as eclectic as their multi-instrumental talents with piano, bouzouki, bodhrán, guitars and more weaving intricate storytelling through harmony and rhythm.

The Cacks will be kicking off the Céilí Picnic this Friday, and their high-energy set is guaranteed to set the tone for an incredible weekend of live music.
