Red Sails Festival Gets Major Boost

Get ready for a splashy summer kickoff—this July, the Red Sails Festival in Portstewart is hitting its biggest yet, thanks to new council funding! From July 19th to 25th, the seaside town transforms into a hub of free, family-friendly fun: live music nightly, Lego workshops, street dance, kite displays, butterfly safaris, and even ocean dips for kids. Hugo Duncan hosts his show Friday, and Saturday’s grand finale includes a kids’ parade, maritime exhibits, Irish and Mexican dance, and a dazzling fireworks show at 10:30 PM. Partnering with Flowerfield Arts Centre and the National Trust, this community-driven celebration promises nonstop excitement—grab a brochure or check their Facebook page for the full schedule.
