Feile Family Bus Run to Lurgybrack Farm

At Galliagh Community Centre · 1A Fairview Road, Derry, Co. Derry

Family group on an outing to a farm

What to Expect

On Saturday 8 August 2026, Galliagh Community Centre runs a family bus outing to Lurgybrack Farm as part of the wider Feile programme, Derry’s community arts festival. The trip is organised as a straightforward family day out rather than a ticketed show: a coach collects families from the community centre and takes them out to the farm for an afternoon of animals, open space and fresh air, before returning everyone to Galliagh in the late afternoon. It sits alongside Feile’s other community-run events, which lean toward low-key, neighbourhood-based activities rather than big stage shows, and this bus run is aimed squarely at parents with younger children looking for something easy to book into over the summer without arranging their own transport out of the city.

Places are booked through Eventbrite rather than paid for on the door, and the listing makes clear there are no refunds once a booking is confirmed, so families should be sure of the date before reserving a spot. As with most Feile community events, numbers are likely to be limited by the size of the coach, so early booking is worth doing if a specific family wants to guarantee a place rather than relying on availability closer to the day.
