This July, the harbour town of Cobh will come alive with the sound of traditional and folk music. Cobh Trad Fest 2026 offers a weekend of live concerts, pub sessions, workshops, and a vibrant busking competition — a celebration of music, community, and craic for all ages. Come join us for unforgettable nights, lively days, and music everywhere you turn.

After an unforgettable 2025 filled with standout performances from Ger Wolfe, NoNameTrio, and The Rolling Wave — plus packed-out pub trails, sun-soaked sessions at the Bandstand, The Shantyman, and The Holy Ground, and workshops that brought the town to life — we’re getting ready to do it all again, even bigger. Cobh Trad Fest 2026 promises more music, more magic, more craic and way more merch – if we learned nothing else from 2025!! Stay tuned for what’s coming!

Come hang out with us for:

• Headline Acts
• Pub Trail with music across Cobh
• Sessions at Promenade Bandstand & The Shantyman & The Holy Ground
• Workshops to beat the band!!
