Visit our Emerald Pop-Up Shop at the Rory Gallagher Festival

Emerald Guitars are on the road this morning to host our very first pop-up shop at the Rory Gallagher International Festival this weekend.

As big fans of the award-winning South Donegal festival, we have been hoping to organise something in the birthplace of world-renowned artist Rory Gallagher for years.

So this morning Alistair packed up the car and hit the road and headed for Ballyshannon to show guitar enthusiasts attending the event a wide range of our instruments.

The entrance to the Emerald Pop-Up Shop is located at Mac Coueran Music, The Old Barracks, Main Street, to the left of the Festival Office. We would like to say a special ‘Thank You’ to Mark Mac Coueran for his hospitality and hosting us for the next two days.

We have a wide range of Emeralds with us and we look forward to meeting anyone who would like to try out one of our X20s, the Chimaera double neck acoustic, a Balor Bass, or even an Amicus (short scale 12-string), all made right here in Donegal.

Festival Line-Up

The annual festival will attract Rory Gallagher fans from all over Europe and beyond and members of the extended Emerald family, well-known to our YouTube Channel, feature in the line-up, including the annual festival highlight that is Johnny Gallagher & Boxtie, Mark Black and Cian O’Donnell.
