Half-Way Fest returns September 2025 to celebrate half way to St Patrick’s Day!

Join us in the heart of Birminghams Irish Quarter marking the halfway point to St Patricks Day with live music, comedy, creamy pints and the craic
 

This year’s hooley, running from Wednesday 17 September to Saturday 20 September,  features some of the best Irish and Scottish live musicians around, including All Folk’d Up, Calum McPhail, Ceol, Clada, and One for the Road across Friday and Saturday.

Halfway Fest will also see the launch of the first ever Birmingham Irish comedy night – Comedy and the Craic at Nortons – curated and hosted by award-winning stand up and actress Jo Enright and leading up to a new festival in March 2025.

The first installment of Comedy at Nortons will star Kevin Gildea, Eleanor Tiernan and John Ryan, PLUS a special feature called ‘The Lock-In’ which will see our host Jo sit down with headliners after their set for a chat about comedy and storytelling, filmed with a live audience.

Grab your tickets for Halfway Fest now, and come raise a creamy pint with us!
