Summer Fest – 31/08/2025

Throughout July and August, Buttercrane will host a series of free events as part their ‘Summer Fest’ campaign.

The schedule kicks off on Thursday 3^rd July with a Summer Glow Up beauty event with one of the leading MUAs in the UK, Belfast-born Paddy McGurgan. Hosted in our new dedicated event zone in the North Mall beside Superdrug, Paddy will run live demos showing us how to achieve dewy, summer skin and there will be refreshments, competitions and giveaways on the night. Demos take place at 6.30pm to 8pm.

Every Friday throughout July and August, we’ll have our Summer Fest DJ Set with DJ Rony B and Quinn’s resident DJ Ruari King from 6.30-8.30pm so you can grab an iced latte, do some shopping and catch up with friends to the sound track of chilled out summer vibes in our colourful event space.

Every Saturday from 12 noon throughout July and August we have Live Music from a range of artists including John McGarrity - aka The Belfast Busker, Ceev, Cairde Ceoil, Amanda Agnew, plus Laser Quest, comedy juggler Frankie Magilligan, face painting and lots more.

The Centre will play host to ‘Newry Does Nashville’ line dancers on Saturday 5^th July and kids can try out Laser Quest on Sunday 6^th July.

Not forgetting our almost famous Buttermilk Drinking Challenge, which takes place on on Sat 23^rd August, as part of Iur Cinn Fleadh weekend. The Challenge hosted by Declan McConaghy is to drink a pint of the white stuff in the fastest time to win £50 Buttercrane voucher.

All events will be hosted in our Summer Fest Event Zone. Check our social pages @ButtercraneCentre for more information
