Live in the Marquee is Carndonagh’s flagship summer festival, returning to the heart of the Inishowen Peninsula each July. Organised by the Carndonagh Traders Association, the three-day event transforms The Diamond into a vibrant hub of music, family fun and community celebration.
Daytime activities include the popular Soapbox Derby, the Malin Street Ball Drop, bingo, tug of war and children’s entertainment, alongside dance and performance showcases from local groups. Each evening, the Marquee becomes one of North Donegal’s premier live music venues, featuring top Irish bands and a lively festival atmosphere. A highlight of the summer for locals and visitors alike.
