Info
MayFest brings GIDDY UP! The Country Folk Brunch to Custom House Square in Belfast on 24 May 2026, with a lineup that bridges contemporary country and folk traditions. Headlining the bill, Nathan Carter showcases the blend that made him known: country, ballads and Irish inflections. Born in Liverpool to a Northern Irish family and later based in Ireland, he is a singer as well as an accordionist, guitarist and pianist, moving between crowd-pleasing covers and recent tracks from his latest albums.
Alongside him, The Highstool Prophets bring a folk repertoire crafted for the stage. Claudia Buckley, Johnny Brady and The Daisy Jukes complete the country lineup. Carried by the Irish scene, Johnny Brady mixes a modern approach with the heritage of the dance halls, enriched by songwriting sessions in Nashville.
The program also includes a tribute segment that revisits major hits past and present: Luke Combs NI, Lainey Wilson performed by Trisha McCluney, the Garth Brooks Spectacular by Johnny Brooks, and Taylor Swift by Taylor NI. It’s a day when guitars, harmonies and country choruses take to the open air in the heart of Belfast.
