Over 30,000 people are expected to attend across the weekend
Grab your cowboy hats folks as the first-ever Farmer’s Bash Weekender is rolling into town.
Since launching at the SSE Arena in 2017, it has grown into an annual must-attend celebration and after a massive sell-out gig at Belsonic last summer, the Farmer’s Bash is making things bigger and better for 2025.
The festival features multiple stages, a massive line-up of country, folk, and rock acts, and an electric atmosphere that draws fans from across Ireland and beyond.
