About

We're so excited to have Omagh's own Cool Hand String Band bringing the local energy and Bluegrass buzz to the Folk Park! Supported by Ian Alexander, you can expect stellar strings and unique sounds at this Bluegrass BBQ.

Try authentic American street food flavours at the BBQ, washed down with a Bourbon, Rye Whiskey, Ale or American Beer (all available to purchase at the bar, please drink responsibly). Bringing the little ones along? Hang out at the family games field for a game of draughts, corn hole, tin can alley and more!
