Farmer’s Bash – to return to Belsonic next summer

After the hugely successful Weekender in 2025 — and selling out BELSONIC in 2024 — Farmer’s Bash is back at Belsonic on Friday 12th June 2026… and trust us, you don’t want to miss this! Get ready for the biggest party of the summer with Derek Ryan, Whistlin’ Donkeys, Garron Noone, Boyzlife, Lisa McHugh and loads more. From farmlife to nightlife, it’s going to be a night of nonstop music, fun, and festival vibes. Bring your friends, bring your energy, and get ready to dance the night away! Since its introduction in 2017, the Farmer’s Bash has blossomed into one of Ireland’s biggest music events, consistently drawing capacity crowds at the SSE Arena Belfast, selling out Belsonic in 2024, and taking over Boucher Playing Fields in 2025. And in 2026, it returns to Belsonic.
