Celebrating 10 Years of WellFest with a Star-Studded New Wave of Headliners

2026 is a milestone year for us at WellFest - and to celebrate our 10th birthday, we’re bringing you our biggest, boldest and most exciting lineup ever. This May, we return to IMMA, Royal Hospital Kilmainham, Dublin (Saturday May 9th & Sunday May 10th), and later this year we’ll make our Belfast debut at Ormeau Park (Saturday September 12th & Sunday September 13th), marking an incredible new chapter in our journey as Europe’s largest outdoor fitness and wellness festival.

And because it’s our 10th anniversary, we’re going bigger than ever - starting with a brand-new wave of headline acts for Dublin to add to what is an already incredible lineup!
