The Devil’s Bit Music Festival 2024 has once again proven to be a highlight of the summer, bringing together music lovers from near and far for a day of unforgettable performances, vibrant atmosphere, and community spirit.
The festival was headlined by Coldplace, the world’s leading tribute to Coldplay, who electrified the crowd with their stunning renditions as part of their world tour.
Pogueology, a tribute to The Pogues, delivered a powerful and emotional performance in memory of the legendary Shane MacGowan, capturing the true essence of The Pogues’ passion and energy.
Local favourites Silver Dollar made a triumphant return, delighting fans with their signature sound.
Rising star, 14-year-old Lorcan Kennedy, wowed the audience with his incredible talent, marking him as one to watch in the future.
Jester, Eoin Ryan, James McGrath, and local band Out The Road all delivered standout sets, while DJs Lorcan Ryan and Eoin Fitz kept the energy high throughout the day
The Devil’s Bit Mountain provided a breathtaking backdrop for the festival.
Attendees enjoyed delicious food from a variety of vendors including Premier Meats, an award winning Thurles based butchers, Templemore’s One19 cafe and refreshments from the full bar provided by Tom Maher’s Inn.
This year’s festival was proud to support the Suir Haven Cancer Support Centre in Thurles.
Representatives from Suir Haven were in attendance, engaging with festival-goers and raising awareness about their vital services.
€700 was collected in bucket donations throughout the day.
This show of support will go a long way in helping Suir Haven continue their essential work within the community.
