About The Festival



The Ballygawley Music Festival

Ballygawley Music Festival was founded in 2019. It is a 3 night music festival which takes place in Ballygawley Village, Co Sligo. 

The festival is run by a group of energetic volunteers from the community with support from our many sponsors. The aim of the event is to host a unique and diverse music event annually in our village (over 18s). 

The festival is a niche festival hosted by one of the smallest populated villages in County Sligo and is held to the highest regard in terms of its organisation, the standard of acts and the atmosphere and excitement its brings to the land of hearts desire.

Acts such as The Tumbling Paddies, Patrick Feeney, Jim Devine, All Folk`d Up, Ruaile Buaile, Mike Denver have all graced the stage since the festival was founded.

In 2024, acts such as The High Kings, The Whistlin Donkeys, Derek Ryan, Johnny Brady, Claudia Buckley, Sean Magee took to the stage.
