About

Celebrating over 34 years of tradition, this community-driven festival transforms the historic coastal village of Ballylongford into a lively hub of food, music, and entertainment every August Bank Holiday weekend. The Seafood Banquet is the crown jewel of the weekend. This highly popular sit-down dinner features a sumptuous spread of fresh local oysters, mussels, and other seafood delights. Famous for its street competitions, including the breakneck Oyster-Swallowing Contest, the highly competitive Barman's Race, and the "Welly-Drag" racing.
