These events are all leading up to our main event in 2024 where our friends Celtic Steamers will be returning to visit towns and villages around Meath with there Steam Engines as we did in 2018. 

As part of the Spirits of Meath Festival for 2022, Discover Boyne Valley is delighted to present Mid-Term Myths at Kells Courthouse Tourism and Cultural Hub.

This story-telling event is aimed at primary school children aged 5-10 who will be regaled with legends and stories of the Boyne Valley by the fantastic Candlelit Tales. 

The event is free but booking is essential due to limited spaces. Children should bring a cushion or blanket to sit on. Note that food and drink items are not permitted on the premises during the performance. 

Causey Farm comes alive with a festive atmosphere – as they celebrate Christmas with all the traditional charm and magic you’d expect.

There’s a chill in the air. The farm animals are in for the winter and the baby lambs will soon be born. Laughter and “Wows” can be heard across the old farmyard – the time has come to celebrate and they do it in style at Causey Farm.

All the sheds have different Christmas-themed events and everyone moves from place to place to sample each new experience.

The Moynalty Yoga Festival is back, with 5 workshop spaces and a variety of yoga, dance, meditation and much more. Therapies, food and craft stalls.

A weekend of movement, wellness, fun and laughter.
