DONNELLY GROUP’S MOTORS MEET MUSIC AT THE FLEADH CHEOIL NA HÉIREANN 2026
Donnelly Group, Northern Ireland’s largest independently owned vehicle retailer, has been announced as the official vehicle partner for Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann 2026, the world’s largest celebration of traditional Irish music and culture.
Taking place in Belfast from August 2nd – 9th and expected to attract over 800,000 visitors, the event marks a major milestone for the family-run business as it prepares to celebrate its 80th anniversary next year.
As part of the sponsorship, a mix of vehicles from Donnelly Group’s showrooms will support Fleadh operations throughout the week. The fleet will include a mix of fully electric and hybrid models from leading brands such as Leapmotor, BYD and Volkswagen Group.
Terence Donnelly, Executive Chairman at Donnelly Group, said:
“The sponsorship for the Fleadh, in partnership with Belfast City Council, is a tremendous opportunity for Donnelly Group. This is a landmark cultural event for Belfast and a chance to showcase our impressive vehicle offering to visitors from all parts of the world.
“As we approach our 80th year, being part of such a significant moment for the city reinforces our commitment to delivering innovation and sustainable transport across Northern Ireland.”
The partnership places Belfast firmly on a global stage, highlighting not only the city’s cultural vibrancy but the capability of Donnelly Group as a vehicle provider trusted to support world‑class events with modern transport solutions.
Donnelly Group’s sponsorship underscores its long-standing dedication to supporting major cultural and civic events across Northern Ireland, while celebrating the heritage, community, and innovation that have defined the company for nearly eight decades.
