Feel The Force Dunmanway

25/05/2026

ATTENTION PLEASE DO JOIN US THIS EVENING MONDAY 25TH MAY
This meeting will be held in conjunction with Dunmanway Chamber of Commerce meeting.
Monday 25th May at 6.15pm Brookpark businesses centre eircode P47VW95.
Everyone welcome

While the Feel the Force Festival will not take place this June Bank Holiday weekend, we’re already setting our sights firmly on 2027.
Planning ahead gives us a valuable opportunity to explore funding through grants, along with creative and meaningful fundraising events in the lead‑up to the festival. Most importantly, it gives us time to grow the ideas — and the community — that make the festival so special.
We’d love to hear your ideas. Are there events, activities, performances, or creative projects you feel would add something unique to Feel the Force Festival?
Behind the scenes, we are a small but passionate team, and we’re always keen to welcome new people who would like to help bring creative ideas to life — whether through planning, fundraising, programming, or simply sharing enthusiasm.
Join us on Monday 25th May at Brookpark businesses centre for an open brainstorming session where we’ll explore ideas together and start shaping the festival’s future.
Everyone is welcome — come along, share your thoughts, or just listen and see how you might like to get involved.
