This year will see the festival take place from Thursday 12th August - Sunday 15th August. The programme has increased with the Hooley kicking off with a teenage disco on Thursday the 12th August.

The big country night of dancing remains on the Friday night with Ireland's number one Jimmy Buckley and his band on the 13th.

More Power To Your Elbow are back on the Saturday night by huge public demand. Sunday 15th sees the Monster Bingo moving to the afternoon and the festival will close on a high with a ceílí and old thyme dance in the evening.

The Festival programme has tried to ensure the entertainment on offer will suit a wide range of tastes and can surely claim to be a festival for all the community. A warm welcome awaits one and all at the 'Hooley In The Valley'.



The festival takes place at Augher Father Hackett Park!
