Every year, Monmouth Park Racetrack is home to the festival's renowned Human Horse Race, as well as an abundance of captivating music and performances. Whether you're interested in tapping your feet to the beat of step dancers or listening to a pipe band competition, this romanticized event has something for everyone! Don't forget about GAA demos, too - they are sure not to disappoint.
2022 marked the 50th anniversary of this great festival, and it was an unforgettable day for all present! The festival eagerly anticipates welcoming you back to the 51st edition of the New Jersey Irish Festival. It looks forward to another year filled with entertainment, food, and music and celebrating Ireland's culture!
