Fleadh Nua

The 2023 Fleadh Nua in Ennis promises to be an exciting festival full of innovation. For 46 years, Fleadh Nua has been an iconic summer festival that welcomes everyone. From its inception in Dublin back in 1970 as a 3-day event, it has now evolved into a 10-day extravaganza with over 120 events to enjoy! Although there are many traditional Irish festivals throughout the warm season, many would agree that none is quite like Fleadh Nua, the pioneer of all celebrations.

Almost a quarter of a century ago, the idea to unite concerts, céilithe, music and dance lessons, street entertainment, and more was novel. Nevertheless, it has evidently been successful over time, as indicated by the thousands of attendees who experience unparalleled traditional amusement at this festival every May! The people of Ennis have been known for their hospitality and friendliness since Fleadh Nua first touched down in 1974. Still, one thing that has undoubtedly evolved is the journey time to get to this beautiful County Clare capital. In May 2023, all routes will lead you directly to Ennis—and, undoubtedly, a memorable experience at Fleadh Nua!

Do not pass on the extraordinary opportunity to experience Fleadh Nua 2023 from May 27th through June 5th! Most of the events are free, and you can take your time exploring every corner of town. Where else could you find such a unique event that will keep your spirits high all day?
