Year 5 of Lusk Summer Festival — and what an absolutely brilliant day it was!! Every year reminds us exactly why we do this, and every year we’re blown away by our amazing community and so grateful for it. A huge thank you to everyone who came along to enjoy the day, to every one of our brilliant volunteers who helped with stewarding yesterday, and especially to our dedicated Summer Festival committee, who work so hard to make the whole day happen. We have lots of thank-yous to share, and we’d really love if you took a minute to read them — it gives a real sense of the community spirit behind the festival and what goes into making a day like this possible!
A big thank you to Lusk Action Group for facilitating this project, which takes around nine months of planning, and once again to our fantastic Lusk Summer Festival committee for their endless energy, commitment and enthusiasm.
We also want to sincerely thank our generous Platinum sponsors, Progressive Credit Union Ltd, and Fingal County Council for their funding and support. Without them, the festival simply wouldn’t happen.
