Púca Festival 2026
29 October to 1 November 2026FinishedTicketed
Four days over the Halloween weekend, Thursday to Sunday, spread across Trim and Athboy in County Meath rather than held on one site. The organisers run a free shuttle between the two towns and ask people to use it, because parking in Athboy is limited. Two strands carry age limits: the Big Top events are 16 and over, and the Samhain Circus is 18 and over.

Where this comes from
The facts on this page were checked against the sources below on the dates shown. Follow the organiser’s link for programme updates.
The festival publishes two towns rather than venue addresses, so the map shows the towns. It also publishes no day by day programme on the page read here, and none is invented.
