About Howth Maritime Festival
Soak Up the Seaside Spirit at the Howth Maritime & Seafood Festival 2026
Set against the stunning backdrop of Howth’s working harbour, the Howth Maritime & Seafood Festival returns in May 2026 for a weekend packed with flavour, fun and community spirit. A celebration of the village’s deep maritime roots and its famous seafood, the festival promises something for all ages to enjoy.
Over the course of the weekend, visitors can expect a vibrant mix of live music, food tastings, family-friendly activities and plenty of fresh sea air. Whether you’re a seafood lover, a music fan or just looking for a day out by the coast, this is one not to miss.
Children can look forward to free attractions and hands-on experiences inspired by the sea, while grown-ups can browse local stalls, chat with traders and sample some of the finest catches from Howth’s own boats. The harbour will come alive with colour and sound, making it the perfect place to soak up the atmosphere.
Howth Maritime By Night continues the fun with live music and events on the peninsula.
