Following the huge success of last year's event, the volunteers are back more enthusiastic than ever with a jam-packed lineup that has something for everyone. From toe-tapping tunes and local talent to family-friendly activities and a fully licensed marquee bar, Flesk Flest '25 promises to be a highlight.
Festival highlights start on July 17 with an All-Ireland Hurling Preview Night where a panel of sporting legends, in partnership with Flesk Fest, offer their opinions.

A line of music from rhe O'Donoghue Sisters, Hacksaw Céilí Band, Johnny Courtney & Friends, Noreen Kelliher, Paud, Molly & Aoise, The Border Boys will keep crowds entertained on the main stage. This includes double the deadliner: The Full Shilling and Bryan Murphy & The Gallivanters.
On Sunday, there will be kids' entertainment, games, and disco, while the All-Ireland Hurling Final will be live on big screens. Live music from We Haven't Made It Yet Main Stage Finale with Jack Patrick Healy will also be a feature.
With food trucks, great company, and a buzzing atmosphere, Flesk Fest '25 is more than a festival, it's a celebration of community, culture, and craic.
