As the final notes fade and the last installations come down, we want to take a moment to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped make Drogheda Arts Festival 2025 such a vibrant, joyful celebration of creativity and community.

From the incredible artists who brought their vision and talent to life, to the volunteers who gave their time and energy so generously, and of course to you — our wonderful audiences — thank you for showing up, engaging, and bringing your own spark to every performance, exhibition, and gathering. Whether you were seeing a new theatre piece, dancing at a late-night gig, discovering a hidden gem in one of our pop-up venues, or just soaking in the atmosphere, your presence made this festival special.

This year’s festival was a real testament to the power of the arts to bring people together. It’s been a privilege to share it all with you.

Take a scroll through some of our favourite snapshots from this year’s festival below — from street performances and workshops to mainstage highlights and behind-the-scenes glimpses, these images capture just a fraction of the energy and heart that filled Drogheda last week.

And while we’re still catching our breath, we’re already looking ahead. We’re thrilled to announce that Drogheda Arts Festival will be back in 2026 and we can’t wait to create more unforgettable moments with you.
