Overview
As a continuation of our successful Emerald Fest music festivals we have decided to do things a little differently in 2024. Instead of running one event in one location we have decided to run a week of incredible exclusive and intimate music events spread across some of the most scenic and iconic locations in Donegal and only a very select number of guests will be in attendance as part of a luxury guided tour. This is a new and unique way to experience Donegal and our music. Over 5 magical days you will experience a truly unique and luxury experience as Kim and Alistair take you on a guided tour of their favourite places, meet their favourite musicians and stay in their favourite 5 star Hotel.
