Over 60 events are planned for the three week festival - many of them for free. Big name acts such as Wallis Bird, Mundy and Sean Keane are also lined up to play.
The Credit Union Family Day takes place on Monday with the street being closed off from 1pm, and Newbridge Garda Station opening its doors to the public. The Credit Union will be giving participants the chance to win a €1,000 windfall on the day while there will be lots of entertainment and a carnival atmosphere for all the family.
