Harvest Country Music Festival was a country music festival which took place for the first time on Saturday 26th and Sunday 27 August 2017, organised and promoted by Aiken Promotions.

Aiken Promotions announced the new festival in December 2016.[1] along with headline acts Miranda Lambert and Nathan Carter. Shortly after the announcement, additional camping facilities were added due to demand[2]

The event was held simultaneously at two locations, sharing the same line-up with artists performing at one location on Saturday and then swapping on Sunday. The locations were Westport House in Westport, County Mayo, Republic of Ireland, and St. Angelo Airport at Trory, just outside Enniskillen, in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland.[3]

St. Angelo Airport predicted crowd numbers of 15,000 for the weekend and tickets were available on the day at both venues[4]
