Wexford Spiegeltent Festival

Book into the 4 Star Riverside Park Hotel and enjoy the Wexford Spiegeltent Festival which has grown to be one of the biggest and most successful multi-genre festivals in Ireland. The Spiegeltents are hand hewn pavilions which are constructed of oak with teak baroque dance floors and decorated with velvet and brocade canopies with bevelled mirror columns and stained glass windows. The beautiful circular venues feature intimate booths, ornate bars and Art Nouveau chandeliers.
