Sheep Herding Demonstrations at Urban Park

Experience one of Ireland's most iconic rural traditions with our NEW sheepherding demonstrations at Urban Park, located just outside the North Gate. Watch highly trained border collies work in partnership with their handler as they skillfully guide sheep through a series of commands, showcasing the intelligence, athleticism, and teamwork that have made sheepherding an essential part of Irish farming for generations. The demonstrations take place outside the festival grounds. Simply have your hand stamped before exiting the festival through the North Gate. You'll be able to re-enter the festival anytime that day during regular festival hours by following the standard security screening policies.
