Celtic FC Foundation are delighted to confirm that we are returning to County Cork for – ‘Celts by the Sea 2025′.

With Celtic Football Club set to be competing in the inaugural Cork Super Cup this July, Celtic FC Foundation are delighted to confirm that we will also be returning to County Cork on Saturday, June 28 for our Celts by the Sea event.
We are incredibly grateful that this will, once again, be very generously sponsored by Sea Church, Ballycotton – a beautiful restaurant and event space.
Delivered in conjunction with the Association of Irish Celtic Supporters’ Clubs, Celts by the Sea will include a sponsored walk along the famous Ballycotton cliffside, followed by an evening of entertainment at Sea Church, featuring Treble-winning former Celt, Chris Sutton.
Supporters have the opportunity to participate in the sponsored walk and can additionally opt to attend the evening event, as this exciting duo of Foundation fundraising initiatives returns for the third year in a row.
The sponsored walk – set to kick off at 3pm – will see participants complete the famous Ballycotton Cliff Walk, which boasts some truly breathtaking sea views.
Participants under the age of 18 can register to participate in the walk free of charge but those under the age of 16 must have written consent and be accompanied by a parent/legal guardian/responsible adult, who must also take part in the event.
The walk will end at Sea Church and participants will be welcomed into the stunning venue, where they will have the opportunity to enjoy a well-earned rest. Participants also have an opportunity to join us for a delicious buffet from 5.30pm.
Sea Church will then play host to a fantastic night of entertainment including a Q&A with Chris Sutton, live music from Celtic Park’s very own, Liam McGrandles and some fantastic items in a wonderful prize draw and auction.
In the first instance, the packages inclusive of the sponsored walk and evening event are available on a first come, first served basis. Sponsored walk participants under the age of 18 are also welcome to join the evening event free of charge, but due to licensing restrictions, they must vacate the venue by 8pm.
Any remaining tickets for the evening event with Chris Sutton will then be available to purchase at a later date, again on a first come first served basis.
Registration is now open for supporters to get involved, please ensure you read the Terms and Conditions before completing the process.
Proceeds raised will be devoted to supporting children and young people through Celtic FC Foundation’s project delivery in Ireland. A portion of the proceeds will also be donated to Marymount University Hospital & Hospice in Cork.
Thank you for your wonderful support.

Andy Irvine
2025-06-28 20:30 - 23:00 (Africa/Abidjan) | The White Horse, The White Horse West Village, Ballincollig, P31 YA40 Cork, Cork, P31 YA40, IE
Enjoy an evening with the widely acclaimed and celebrated Andy Irvine in the intimate setting of The White Horse.

Legendary Irish singer/songwriter Andy Irvine makes a long-awaited return to The White Horse for an evening of song & stories. With his impressive repertoire of Irish traditional songs and dexterous Balkan dance tunes, he creates an exciting new fusion of Irish and World Music not to be missed.
Having travelled the world with bands such as Sweeney’s Men, Patrick Street, Planxty, and more recently Mozaik, Andy continues to pursue new combinations and styles of music. He has broadened his musical horizons over the course of his forty-year career to encompass the musical styles of countries he visits, such as the Balkan folk style of playing.
Between the achievements of his solo, group work and collaborations, he is a highly revered troubadour of the Irish music world. Andy Irvine never fails to deliver a pulsating, heartfelt performance!
Andy is one of the most creative and talented people it has ever been my privilege to work with. Great company, superb singer, genius of a musician, truly original songwriter and an inspiration to all of us – what more could anyone ask? Dick Gaughan
His forte, his genius is playing his mandolin, mandola and bouzouki. I have never heard such clarity of sound, such perfect and precise rhythmic variations or such brilliant melodic figures from this family of instruments. San Francisco Examiner

Seán Keane
2025-07-18 20:00 - 22:00 (Europe/Dublin) | Ballymaloe Grainstore, Shanagarry , Co Cork, Co Cork, IE
Grainstore audiences adore Seán Keane – his annual summer concerts always sell out. He returns on Friday 18 July 2025.

Seán Keane, possessor of one of Ireland’s most distinctive voices, returns to Ballymaloe Grainstore for his annual summer concert – this will be his seventh – on Friday 18 July 2025. As usual, he will be joined on stage by guitarists Fergus Feely and Shane McGowan.
Steeped in music, Seán Keane grew to musical maturity in an atmosphere where nothing is more important than playing a tune well and singing a song as it should be sung. Although heavily influenced by traditional styles and values, Seán cannot be categorised simply as a traditional singer. Whether the songs are traditional, folk, country or blues, he applies a unique voice and unforgettable individual style.
