In the Moment: Capturing the Fleadh 2024 | Saturday 2 August – Wednesday 13 August 2025 | Wexford Arts Centre | Image: the photo, taken on a waterfront pier, shows a group of young (probably teen) musicians in red tops and dark trousers holding various instruments as they attend to their director, apparently equally young, standing in front of them in a pink t-shirt and grey trousers; towering over them is a Celtic harp with Celtic design; in the background we see buildings and ships; it's sunny with a bit of cloud

Wexford Arts Centre and Wexford Camera Club are proud to present In the Moment: Capturing the Fleadh 2024, a compelling group photography exhibition that celebrates the vibrant energy and cultural richness of last year’s Fleadh Cheoil. This exhibition showcases the spirit of the festival through the lens of twelve talented photographers, all members of the Wexford Camera Club. The photographers include Darren Arkins, Bart Bulla, Kevin Cadogan, Miriam Furlong, Aoife Kavanagh, Donna Kehoe, Lucy Leonel, Alan Mahon, Ann McCafferty, Ian Moriarty, John Mullins, and Marie Phelan.

The exhibition will take visitors on a visual journey through the event, from lively performances on the Gig Rig, street acts, and authentic pub music sessions to behind-the-scenes moments, honouring the people who made it happen and illustrating the power of music to bring us all together in a shared celebration of art and joy.

Featuring over seventy photographs, the exhibition highlights the diversity of perspectives and the beauty of capturing fleeting, yet powerful, moments in time.  It is a tribute to the enduring legacy of the Fleadh Cheoil and its role in preserving and promoting Irish musical heritage.
