The very first WellFest took place in September 2015 in Herbert Park, Dublin. The festival was created by 4 founders; Helena and Katie Ryan, Fionnualla Cleary and Anthony Kelly. The founders loved music festivals… But they were also huge fans of health and wellness. So they decided to create a festival that had music festival vibes… But with fitness icons instead of music groups, and avocados in place of alcohol!

The festival has grown every year since, and last year we had over 12,000 WellFesters in attendance. 2024 is looking to be our biggest and best year yet.

There are tonnes of different activities to enjoy over the 2 days of WellFest. We have 15 different areas at the festival, covering everything from HIIT workouts to nutrition talks, yoga flows to mindfulness discussions, and everything in between!

Just like at any music festival, we have a giant Main Stage where our headline acts perform and lead the crowd in various workouts and yoga sessions throughout the weekend… Then there are dedicated areas for things such as mindfulness, talks, yoga, food and lots more!

There is also a designated kids area, with every adult ticket for WellFest allowing for up to 2 children under 12 to attend for free!

And let’s not forget the WellVillage, where you can browse the trade stalls, try some samples, and do a bit of shopping for your favourite health and wellness products!

Come lunch time, head over to the WellFood Area where there are a wide selection of healthy food options on offer and pull up a picnic table to recharge the batteries for an afternoon of fitness and fun!
