Donegal County Council is delighted to announce the launch of the 2026 Fáilte Ireland’s Festival and Events Funding Programme, designed to support festivals and participative events that contribute to the county’s vibrant tourism offering and enrich the visitor experience.
This funding initiative aims to celebrate Donegal’s rich cultural heritage, foster community engagement, and attract both local and international visitors to our towns and villages.
The supported events must help to drive domestic and international tourism arrivals to Donegal, win bed nights, stimulate local economic activity, and help to improve the visitor experience in the county.
The application period will close at 5pm on Friday 6th February 2026.
