Instead the festival will rebrand and relocate to Kerry. The new festival which will run next June will be known as the Killarney Festival of Music & Food will be known as the Killarney Festival of Music & Food.
The Westport Festival had run for the past three years in the grounds of the historic Westport House. This year 20,000 music fans attended the two day festival which was headlined by Bryan Adams and David Gray.
In a statement issued today, organisers confirmed the event would be moving to Killarney.
“After three fantastic years in Westport, the promoters have made the difficult decision to move the popular boutique festival,” a statement read.
The family friendly festival will take place in Killarney on the weekend of June 27 and 28. Tickets will go on sale on Friday, December 12 at 9am from ticketmaster outlets nationwide.
“The Killarney Festival of Music & Food 2015 promises to be a fun filled entertainment weekend to remember with international and Irish acts performing across seven stages. Music acts, comedians, chefs, and children’s activities will be announced over the coming months,” organisers said.
Adult Day tickets cost €76 and weekend tickets cost €142. Teen concessions are available and under 12’s go free
