Ballycastle, County Antrim, BT54 6BT
Crowds line the street in the Diamond

About

Ireland's oldest fair returns to the beautiful seaside resort of Ballycastle for another year of trading, bargaining and a programme packed with entertainment!

Sample the famous local favourite, Yellow Man or Dulce, and wander around the Naturally North Coast and Glen's Artisan Market, which features local fresh produce, quirky handmade crafts and fine art.  Experience the hustle and bustle of the horse trading village, or simply take in the atmosphere and local banter on the streets of Ballycastle!

Sticking with tradition, the main events will be held on the last Monday and Tuesday of August when the town is transformed by hundreds of stalls lining the streets, as far as the eye can see.
