Max HeyraudThe teams behind two of Derry’s most important cultural gatherings, the now-shuttered Celtronic Festival and Féile Derry, have joined forces for a brand-new venture, All Kinds of Everything, described as “a music festival like no other.” The event will take place from April 2nd to 5th.
After 25 editions, Celtronic Festival closed its doors last year, bowing out on a high. Long regarded as one of Ireland’s most respected electronic music festivals, Celtronic welcomed festival regulars such as Dave Clarke, Helena Hauff and Mano Le Tough for its final edition. Over the years, it also hosted leading artists including DJ Stingray, Ben UFO and Laurent Garnier.
Celebrated for its unwavering commitment to thoughtful, forward-facing curation, Celtronic built a reputation as a purist yet progressive platform, earning deep respect from artists and audiences alike across Ireland and beyond.
Joining them is Féile Derry, the city’s largest community-based arts and cultural festival. A major annual celebration of local creativity, heritage and neighbourhood life, Féile presents a wide-ranging, multi-day programme spanning arts, culture, sport, music, film, exhibitions, discussions and community events. Designed to bring together residents, families, artists and visitors, it connects communities across the Bogside, Brandywell, Creggan, Bishop Street, the Fountain and the city centre.
While details around All Kinds of Everything remain limited, the shared ethos and combined experience of both teams suggest something ambitious for the city. With a legacy of world-class music programming meeting deep community engagement, this new collaboration is set to be a major cultural moment for Derry.
