Wexford Walled Town Day - Part of Heritage Week 2024

Wexford has just had the Fleadh but the Irish town is not finished with summer as another fine outdoor event, Wexford Walled Town Day, is taking place this weekend at Westgate Park, Abbey Street in Wexford Town.

Wexford Walled Town Day is part of Heritage Week and the medieval walled town will be filled with history walks and talks from Wex Walks, traditional music by Craobh Loch Garman Comhaltas, face painting, falconry and owls display from the Irish National Heritage Park, and jewellery making using traditional, medieval techniques by Irish goldsmith Christina Keogh, pictured above.

Come along and discover what medieval life was like in Ireland hundreds of years ago with interactive fun for all ages on Saturday 17th of August from 12:00 to 17:00. You might spot medieval drummers walking around Wexford too.
