📸 CALLING ALL FORMER MISS GREENCASTLE WINNERS! 👑
We’ve been contacted by a former Miss Greencastle who is hoping to help put together a complete list and photo album of every Miss Greencastle over the years.
If you are a past Miss Greencastle — or if you know one — and have photos, names, or any information, we’d really appreciate your help!
Please drop a message here or send any photos directly to us.
Let’s see if we can gather the full history of this great tradition! 💚

Great to see our Friend Matthew Crampsey on the late late Show last night. We all know how talented Matthew is and are already getting excited for him as he will be closing this year's festival.

Thanks to everyone who came out on that cold night for the light up. I am sure you all agree the village once again looks beautiful. A big thanks to Thomas Havlin and the lads for our tree, it's just perfect for our village. Thanks to Evan Farren and his crew for taking care of the lights for us. Nothing is ever any bother for all of those lads. Anyone who was in the village this evening will be very grateful for the marquee supplied by Patrick and Danielle McClenaghan, it was very much appreciated by all when the rain hit. Thanks for putting all that effort into getting it up today in that weather and everyone who came to help, and also thanks to Andy for getting enough heavy things for us to weigh it down! As always, thanks to the Gormley Family, nothing is ever a problem. Thanks to DJ Rudders for a great set! And of course Santa Claus and his elf! Thanks too to Paul Gill for making sure Santa arrived on time! I am so worried I am going to forget anyone and if I have I apologize. Thank you to everyone who has helped in any way. The effort is truly appreciated.

Finally, I want to thank the newest members of our committee who didn't actually realize they had signed up to be on the Christmas tree committee as well. It's been an absolute pleasure to work with you all and you have each embraced every part of being on this committee amazingly.

That's a wrap from us for 2025. Thank you to everyone who helped with both the regatta and the Christmas tree this year. Our little village is class! See you all on 2026. Merry Christmas to you all and a happy new year
