Louth comes alive for Crinniú na nÓg 2025
Drogheda is gearing up for a day bursting with imagination, colour, and youthful energy as Crinniú na nÓg 2025 takes over the town on June 7. Part of the national Creative Ireland initiative and proudly hosted by Louth County Council, this free day of events takes over towns, public spaces, libraries, theatres, and arts venues right across the county.
This year's Youth Ambassador is Grace Gonnelly, a talented 17-year-old filmmaker from Dundalk and member of M.A.D. Youth Theatre. Grace's powerful short film Cliff Edge—chronicling her personal journey living with a chronic pain condition—earned her the RTÉ Factual Award at Ireland's Young Filmmaker of the Year in April. She now inspires her peers to express themselves through the arts and get involved in this national day of free creative activities for young people.
