About: The Riverfest Music Festival in County Offaly takes place on the banks of the River Shannon at the historic Luker’s Bar in Shannonbridge. The independent, multi-genre festival combines live Irish music, wellness activities (yoga & morning swims), artisan markets and riverside fire showcases. The Festival features multi-stage performances with a mix of indie rock, electronic beats and popular Irish artists. Previous editions have featured headliners like Lyra and Fionn Curran, along with bands playing tribute sets to AC/DC, the 80s and 90s. This festival is strictly over 18s & this site includes food and craft markets, as well as Enchanted garden for wellness. Organizers typically run continuous buses from the event to nearby towns like Athlone, Ballinasloe & Tullamore once the festival ends each night. Ticket information and specific daily line-ups are posted on the Luker’s Bar Riverfest & Info Page.
