CelticFest Warwick

Held in Warwick, Queensland, CelticFest celebrates the Southern Downs’ rich Scottish and Irish heritage. The two-day event will be held on the King's Birthday weekend in October 2025 at the Warwick Showgrounds.

CelticFest Warwick 2025 will include Highland Games heavy events, a full line-up of Scottish and Irish music, a bustling medieval encampment, thrilling pipe bands, Highland creatures including gorgeous Highland cows, Celtic-themed markets, and much, much more (all to be confirmed)! Traditional Scottish and Irish food and drink will be on offer too, including haggis pies, potato cakes, Guinness, cider and of course, whisky! Other food options will also be available.

Similar to CelticFest Warwick 2023, the CelticFest organising committee expects that the local community and businesses will again support CelticFest Warwick 2025 with CelticFringe events held between Friday 3 October and Monday 6 October. The CelticFringe lineup will likely include heritage railway trips to Clifton on the Southern Downs Explorer, music performances at local venues including the Club Warwick RSL, tours of historic buildings in Warwick and surrounds, and music, language and art workshops.

Visitors will have to stay an extra night or two for the full CelticFest experience!
