Enjoy the Fleadh Cheoil 2026 on this epic 5 day tour of Northern ireland and Donegal

We have a great tour going up to the proud city of Belfast on August 3rd 2026 and the tour spends two full days in Belfast enjoying 'the fleadh' before adventuring onwards to the Giants Causeway, historic Derry and beautiful Donegal.

The Fleadh Cheoil is the world's biggest festival of Irish music and culture, its like the Olympics of Irish traditional music :)

Heres a link to info on this great festival, symbolically being held in Belfast for the first time (and of course Essential Ireland tours will be there)
