Forest Fest 2024

Forest Fest is aimed at a discerning audience, our objective to ensure a quality, close-up, close quarters, quality gig experience with numbers strictly limited.

A summertime party atmosphere for 2024 will bring dancing to the crossroads of Emo for the weekend of July 19 – 21. Our plan is for you the fans to be at the heart of this event.

You provide the rhythm, we’ll provide the beat…and the tasty craft beers, the fabulous food, the classy cocktails, and the cracking tunes.

The venue for Forest Fest is at the crossroads in Emo Village and at the crossroads of Ireland, only 10 minutes from the towns of Portlaoise, Portarlington, and Mountmellick .

The forest skyline in the spectacular parklands of the iconic heritage house at Emo Court just across the road from our venue is what inspires our festival name and logo.

After an extremely successful run for 2022 / 2023 we are so looking forward to bringing you Forest Fest 3.
