Welcome to the new home of Ashbourne Festival, StreetFest, and our year-round events. Here you’ll find everything you need - what’s coming up, how to get involved, where to grab tickets, and how to support the festival if you fancy lending a hand or making a donation.

From the moment the lanterns lit up the streets to the final wave of the performers, it was a night full of magic, joy, and community spirit. Thank you to everyone who braved the weather – the smiles, the laughter (and yes, some surprised faces from the Howlers) made it all worth it!

The magical Lantern Spectacular returns, a half-mile procession of candle-lit paper and willow lanterns, winding through the streets to light up the night.

The future of the 2024 Lantern Spectacular – and those that will follow in future years – has been secured.

What a great evening! Even the rain stayed away!
