The launch of Puck Fair 2026 will be taking place this evening.
The launch event is the official countdown to the legendary festival, which takes place each year on the 10th, 11th and 12th of August.
The festivities will begin at 8pm, at 10 Bridge Street in Killorglin, where details of the festival’s line-up will be revealed; and the Queen of Puck, Scarlett Moriarty, will be crowned.
Puck Fair is Ireland’s oldest Gathering Festival, tracing its roots back to the Pagan festival of Lughnasa.
Each year the festival brings tens of thousands of visitors to Killorglin, with record crowds expected again this year.
