Féile Derry

13/10/2026

Film-maker, Eamon Kerrigan, screened his brilliant documentary, Faughan, at Féile 2026.

The film explores the River Faughan, the people and fishing culture connected to it, and the Mobuoy illegal waste site beside one of Derry’s main drinking water sources. Made independently over the past year, the film aims to raise awareness while documenting the river and the community around it.

The film can now be viewed online at the link below.

An estimated 635,000 tonnes of waste were illegally deposited at Mo...

Other Voices, that was something special ❣️

It was fantastic for Féile and Celtronic to partner with Other Voices to bring this incredible festival back to the city for the first time in over 10 years.

Derry was alive as we welcomed some of the most amazing musical talent from across our island and beyond to the most beautiful place on planet earth.

Over 60 gigs took place at venues across the city, and the already beautiful St. Columb’s Hall was transformed to showcase the magic of Other Voices to audiences all over the world.

Our bars and restaurants were buzzing, our hotels booked out, the Music Trail sold out, and music fans from all over Ireland came together to create an electric atmosphere.

This is only the beginning of something special - we can’t wait for next year.

The legendary Martin Hayes returns to Derry this Thursday to open Other Voices in the Guildhall. 🎻

Last summer, ahead of his sold-out performance at Féile 2025, Martin paid a very special visit to Mary Nelis on her 90th birthday, playing a few tunes for her in the garden.

One of the greats of Irish traditional music, Martin will be joined by the brilliant Brian Donnellan for a special opening concert. It’ll be a great night!

A special day as we welcomed Health for Life’s SEEDS project for ‘Down Memory Lane’, looking back at some special Derry City FC memories from over the decades at the Ryan McBride Brandywell Stadium.

Plenty of nostalgia as the old shirts, archive footage, photographs, programmes and memorabilia from over the years brought back plenty of memories and got people chatting about the glory days.

We also heard from some Derry City FC legends as they shared their own memories of the club through the years.

Thanks to everyone who helped bring the day together, and to everyone who came along and shared their memories with us.
