DAMIEN LEITH TO RETURN
Great for the 2026 Koroit Irish Festival as we can confirm Damien Leith is making his Koroit Irish Festival comeback.
Damien is so happy to be coming back, this time to celebrate our 30th festival with us.
Damien first came to Koroit in 2014 and fell in love with the place.
He will appear only at the Friday night concert in 2026, so fans are urged to get in for their tickets early to not miss out on the full weekend ticket.
SO MUCH FUN
