Swamp Festival set to take place in Belfast for first time

The first-ever ‘Swamp Festival’ in Belfast is coming to the Bog Meadows Nature Reserve in Belfast next weekend.

A unique and free fusion of music, arts and crafts, storytelling, nature walks and cultural workshops, the festival will celebrate the return of the African sedge warblers, willow warblers, house martins and swallows to Bog Meadows.

Belfast City Council and Ulster Wildlife have joined forces with ArtsEkta to put in place this special Swamp Festival for all the family as part of the £5.1million EU PEACE IV-funded Forth Meadow Community Greenway project.
