Experience the thrill of the Rush Harbour Festival and Airshow, where the sky meets the sea in a spectacular display of aviation and maritime culture. This year, the heart of the action moves to the wide sands of North Beach, offering the perfect natural amphitheatre for world-class aerial acrobatics.
Departing from the traditional funfair, this event focuses on authentic coastal charm. Witness elite pilots perform daring maneuvers over the Irish Sea, then explore the vibrant artisan markets featuring local Fingal produce. With live music, heritage boat displays, and a community-driven atmosphere, it’s a sophisticated, free day out for all ages.
