Festival goers were not deterred by the rain as they turned out for Laois' Folly Festival, the music, comedy and culture event taking place in Cullohill this weekend. 



Attendees were wowed by fantastic music from local acts and headliners on Friday night, including Roisin O, Darren Kiely, Oscar Blue, Jessica Doolan and Cliona McDonald. DJ S2 played from 12am onwards. 

The MC for the event is Doireann Ní Ghlacáin, who bantered with the audience and warmly welcomed each act to the stage.

There were plenty of umbrellas to be seen, but the wet conditions put no damper on the night. 

Tune in for more coverage on Cullohill’s Folly Festival 2024 from the Leinster Express/Laois Live, with plenty of fun, food and festivities coming up!

The Folly Festival is brought to you by Cullohill Community Council with the support of Electric Picnic, Laois Partnership Company and Laois County Council.
