TIME TO CELEBRATE, DISCOVER AND CONNECT

Summer Madness probably Ireland’s premier

Christian youth festival and for many youth groups

has become the annual feature of their summer

programme, attracting thousands of young people

from the North and South of Ireland. What brings

together this amazing bunch of young people and

leaders is the desire to encounter Jesus and then

celebrate and explore the role of this relationship in

everyday life. Connecting their personal experience

with God to the bigger picture of what’s happening

beyond their church, their town or even their country.

The Festival offers a long week-end of faith building

encounters, an action packed programme and an

awesome array of bands, workshops, drama and

debate. The Spirit-filled worship and the practical

teaching from leading youth speakers combines

with the wide range of outdoor activities to offer

a varied programme to cater for all tastes.

A JOURNEY OF DISCOVERY

IT’S NOT ALL TALK

The whole festival experience of getting away

together and setting up camp is an adventure in

itself. Combine this with a range of fun outdoor

activities and this makes for an exhilarating (and

exhausting) five days. We have got zorbing,

hip hop dance workshops, acoustic afternoons,

caged football, bands galore, sports workshops,

climbing walls, on-site laserquest, and themed

cafes where you can chillax the entire day away

from the hustle and bustle of the festival beat.

WHO’S IT FOR?

Youth groups and young-ish people from every

background and denomination. The event began

within the Church of Ireland and is now an

independent charity. The festival is sustained through

the dedicated support of hundreds of volunteer

staff, and churches and partner agencies of all kinds.

So you’ll feel right at home…just one big family.

WHAT ELSE DO WE DO?

We are known for the big festival but we also teach,

equip and inspire through local church-based events,

training events, resources, discipleship courses

and working closely with other Christian youth

providers. One of our core events called StreetReach

provides young people great opportunities to

share their faith in simple acts of kindness in local

communities directly after the summer festival.
