The biggest date in the North West's festival calendar has arrived. Now in its fifth year, Glenelly's 'Rockin by the River' Festival has become widely recognised as one of the most popular on the festival circuit.
This year’s festival, which takes place in Plumbridge from 21st July until 27th July, will provide a week of fun for all the family. From Monday right through to Sunday there is an action packed week long festival of culture and community organised activity to suit everyone. The Festival Committee would like to acknowledge the support of sponsors, volunteers and Strabane District Council.

Their commitment to plan quality events has once again attracted leading names, including Mike Denver, More Power to Your Elbow, The Miracles, Colenso Parade and Jokers Wild, to offer an inspiring music programme of country, traditional and rock.
The festival programme includes events for all ages, such as Sperrin Ramble, disco for U-11 and U-18, bingo extravaganza, sheep and cattle shows, sheepdog trials, vintage rally and threshing, jiving workshop, a family sports and fun day and a craft fair.
