IF YOU’RE TRYING to make this summer one to remember for you and your family then look no further, because we are giving away one family pass to Kaleidoscope Festival, presented by Glenveagh. 

The festival takes place on 3-5 July across the first weekend of the month, so hopefully the sun will be out in full force and the only time you’ll be feeling the rain on your skin is when you’re listening to Friday’s headliner Natasha Bedingfield, known for such megahits as ‘These Words’, ‘Unwritten’, and ‘Pocket Full of Sunshine’.

The rest of the line-up is stellar, especially for those seeking some nostalgia. Saturday is headlined by Pete Tong Ibiza Classics, while Sunday is capped off with a performance by legendary Galway band The Saw Doctors. Other acts on the bill over the weekend include Mundy, Mark McCabe (of Maniac 2000 fame), and Dustin the Turkey. 

The festival takes place on the scenic grounds of Russborough House in Co Wicklow, and you can learn more about the line-up, events and more here. You can also check out the line-up on the flyer below.

Glenveagh Elemen-Tree Woods

What makes Kaleidoscope so unique is the breadth of its offerings for families. Glenveagh’s Elemen-Tree Woods is a dedicated family zone packed with free creative activities across the weekend.

Room to Improve host Dermot Bannon will be back with his design school, where young people get the chance to be taught by Bannon himself in design workshops on the Saturday and Sunday. Young budding architects will also have the opportunity to design a treehouse, with a grand prize of a treehouse voucher worth €2,000 for the winner. 

There’s no shortage of other events for younger kids too, including a Mini Kids Disco, Kids Yoga, Kids Movie Time and an LGFA ‘Show Us Your Skills’ Zone. This area is designed to be all about fun, creativity and connection – the perfect opportunity for families to decompress and spend quality time together.

The entire festival is built to accommodate your family's needs, and there will be circus performances, hands-on science experiments, magic shows, family sports and wellness events, and children's storytelling and creative writing workshops. 

Thanks to Glenveagh, we’re giving away a free Family Weekend Pass (x2 Adult Weekend Tickets & x2 Kids Weekend Tickets) for the festival. These tickets cover attendance for a family of four — including a weekend pass for the festival, as well as parking and access to the campsite.
