There will also be the Fenian Brothers, The Bob Morris Irish Band, Susan & Gerard, pipers, dancers and food and drink. The event will take place at the Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Church, located on North Ocean Avenue in Patchogue. Entry to the event is $20; children under 12 are free.

According to Fr. Henry Reid, this is the second Irish Festival the church has hosted and they selected June as not to interfere with other Irish events. The event was supposed to first take place in 2020, but was knocked back due to COVID. Even though the inaugural festival broke even last year, the hope is to use the event as a fundraiser for the parish, which is in need of an HVAC system as well as upkeep and repairs.
