Calling All Food, Drink & Craft Producers 🍰
The Big Barn Bash is launching a brand-new family festival experience in County Carlow on 31st October and 1st November 2026, and we are inviting fully certified food and drink providers, artisan producers, growers, bakers, and a select group of craft makers to help us build an event that celebrates the very best of our region.
We are creating a vibrant marketplace featuring both ready-to-eat food and drink offerings alongside food and drink products for visitors to take home, complemented by a carefully curated selection of quality craft producers. Our aim is simple: to build a supportive community that showcases local talent, local flavour, and local enterprise.
The Big Barn Bash combines great food with family fun, farmyard experiences, live entertainment, celebrity chef demonstrations, artisan producers, and activities for all ages.
Visitors can enjoy everything from the inaugural Coppenagh Coo 5km Carlow Chase, artisan coffee and local food experiences, to live demonstrations featuring Edward Hayden, Rachel Allen, and Virgin Media's Deric Ó h'Artagáin.
Closing Date: 25th September 2026
