Kaleidoscope Festival 2019, Saturday

A fun, family-friendly festival is coming to Wicklow this summer

It’s the perfect way to kickstart the kids’ summer holidays.

After its inaugural sellout in 2019, the Kaleidoscope Music and Arts Festival is back, featuring an exciting line-up of music, meditation, sport, fun and games the whole family will love.

The three-day carnival of colour will take place at the historical grounds of Russborough House, Blessington, Co Wicklow from June 24 to 26, with headliners like Feeder, James Morrison, Lyra and Dec Pierce’s Block Rockin Beats to grace the stage.

Enjoy a fun-filled fest in the summer sun, dancing away to your favourite tunes with your little ones, indulging in delicious food and trying out new activities like laughter yoga, archery, and a skate park.

What’s on

Kaleidoscope Festival 2019, Sunday, mainstage, Wild Youth

Kids will be excited about the festival’s biggest (literally) attraction, The World’s Largest Bouncy Castle, as well as the Cinema Under the Stars, the Scrumdiddlyumptious Festival of Food, and athletic activities like tug-of-war, go-karts, paddleboarding, kayaking, a daily 5k run and even welly-throwing competitions.

But there’s plenty for parents to do too, including yoga and tai chi classes in the wall garden and a visit to the Woodland Spa for a massage. Or, if you’re looking for something the whole family can do together, there’s family football matches, three-legged races and more.
