‘Reeling in the Féile’, a full-scale outdoor presentation of old pictures from the ‘Journal’ and Féile archives, was put on display at Meenan Square during the 2026 edition.
The exhibition reflects ‘the people and moments that have shaped the festival over three decades’.
A trawl of the ‘Journal’ archives unearthed dozens and dozens of photographs from Féiles past.
Some of these made it onto the Bogside art installation.
Here are some of them, as well as others from yesteryear. You can still check out the physical exhibition at Meenan Square.
