Disney Springs’ Raglan Road Irish Pub & Restaurant Kicks Off Labor Day Weekend with 8th Annual ‘Great Irish Hooley’ Festival

We were invited to attend a media preview of this year’s Great Irish Hooley at Raglan Road Irish Pub & Restaurant at Disney Springs.

The Great Irish Hooley is a free admission festival that runs throughout the long Labor Day weekend, beginning at 4 p.m. Friday, Aug. 30, and continues each day and night through late Monday, Sept. 2.

Never heard of a “hooley?”  It is an old Gaelic term for a party with music and entertainment with fun for the whole family.

HighTime – This fresh new trio from Connemara, Ireland, combines Irish music and an intriguing blend of modern folk influences to produce a rich sound and exciting experience.  The band rocks an energetic statement with its instrumental line-up of flute, whistles, harp, bodhran, guitar and vocals – as well as some Irish dance steps thrown in!


Maca – Two Irish sister-musician-songwriters dubbed “Ireland’s next big thing” are rocking Raglan Road Pub stages with their extraordinary talent.  Saoise Carty (guitar, vocals) and Naoise Carty (fiddle, vocals) are from Wexford, Ireland. 

The Great Irish Hooley will include Celtic face painting, Hooley-crafted cocktails plus creative new bites by the pub’s inventive culinary team.

The pub also will introduce a new local craft beer collaboration with Crooked Can Brewing: the Devil’s Foot Blackberry Golden Ale. And Raglan Road also will serve the delicious Rollicking Raglan Brunch Saturday, Aug. 31 through Monday, Sept. 2. 

Sláinte!
