With just a few more sleeps left until Sea Sessions 2022, sports lovers are in for a treat as Barefoot Beach Sports makes its highly anticipated return.
This weekend, Barefoot Beach Sports make their highly anticipated return as they join Sea Sessions headliners Kodaline, Tinie Tempah, Joel Corry, and Basement Jaxx at the biggest beach party weekend of the year.
The popular Barefoot Beach Sports, sponsored by Barefoot Wine, will feature Volleyball, Soccer, Rugby, Frisbee, and Yoga.
Sports fans will be treated to a variety of different games.
The Barefoot Tag Rugby and Barefoot Soccer events run on the Saturday of the festival in the Surfers Village beside Waterworld, a 5-minute walk from the festival. Each tournament is delivered in a knockout format with the two highest-scoring teams also progressing to the second round. Tickets for the Festival in 2023 are up for grabs for the winners of each event. All proceeds will go to Barefoot Wine charity partners and event hosts Liquid Therapy.
Beach Volleyball is hosted by Beach Volleyball Ireland. Beach Volleyball Ireland will be running a mixture of display games and workshops. The Beach Volleyball will take place on the Main Beach in Bundoran right in front of the festival site. There will be open courts for those that want to give it a go and we will run a social competition on Sunday.
