Baginbun Norman Festival

Hook Tourism are delighted to announce that the 5th Baginbun Norman festival will be held at Fethard Castle on Sunday 27th July 2025.

 

‘At the creek of Baginbun, Ireland was lost and won’ is well remembered here in Wexford. It refers to the Normans’ victory over the local forces who fought them on their arrival in Baginbun in 1170. Arguably, one of the most significant events in Irish history.

 

There is an action packed schedule which will also include a Norman Re-enactment group, Dunbrody Archery display, Medieval games and Live Music among many others.

 

This is a great event for the locals of the area, historical societies and heritage groups and families of Norman heritage, plus the curious amongst you…
