Music and surf festival returns to County Donegal this June

Later this month will see 10,000 music and surf fans descend upon Bundoran in  Donegal for the highly anticipated annual Sea Sessions festival.

And this year, the line-up is bigger than ever with some of the biggest names in music getting ready to take the stage.

With countless award nominations and high praise from all corners, Sea Sessions has established itself as one the most important dates on the Irish festival circuit.

Over the years, the likes of Dermot Kennedy, Kasabian, Clean Bandit, Basement Jaxx, Becky Hilland and loads more have graced the Sea Sessions stages.

The event is a lot more than a music festival, with surfing, beach sports, skating, BMXing, beach yoga, and just chilling by the beach or taking a sea swim.
