About
Roll up, roll up to the Amazing Stendhal Festival, Northern Ireland's biggest and best loved independent music and arts festival since 2011.
Kick start your summer with singing, dancing and all modes of merriment courtesy of a stellar cast of performers from all artistic walks of life.
Music, comedy, poetry, a dedicated family programme and a host of visual arts for your senses to feast upon.
The festival also has a dedicated family programme that caters to children and families of all ages. Such is the focus on the family aspect of the festival, Stendhal has won awards naming it 'Ireland’s Best Family Festival' over the years and organisers of the event are keen to improve the family and children’s entertainment offerings each and every year.
