Omagh’s own Cool Hand String Band brings local energy and a lively dose of Bluegrass sounds to the Folk Park. Supported by Ian Alexander, this Bluegrass BBQ promises outstanding string musicianship and distinctive musical flair.

Enjoy authentic American street‑food flavours from the BBQ, paired with a Bourbon, Rye whiskey, ale or American beer (available to purchase from the bar ).

Bringing the family along? Visit the family games field, where children (and grown‑ups) can enjoy classic games including draughts, cornhole, tin can alley and more.

Your ticket also includes full access to the Folk Park visitor experience, where the rich and diverse stories of Irish and Ulster‑Scots emigrants — and their lasting impact on the development of the United States — are brought vividly to life.
