We are delighted to launch Ireland's newest music festival that will be taking place in the centre of Mullingar, Co. Westmeath on the May Bank Holiday Weekend in 2022.

We're bringing some of Ireland's best musical talent to the heart of the Midlands for the build up to the Westmeath Bachelor Competition Finale.

Westmeath Bachelor Competition 2022

Sunday 1st of May 2022 - Mullingar Arts Centre

After our Country Sessions Concert on Sunday 1st May 2022, Nathan Carter will join our other celebrity judges Anne Doyle, Doireann Garrihy & Louis Walsh as the search for Ireland's Most Eligible Bachelor comes to an extraordinary finale in the Mullingar Arts Centre.

Along with the title of Westmeath Bachelor the winner will also receive an all inclusive holiday to Ibiza, a new wardrobe that would be the envy of James Bond himself and a cash donation to their chosen charity.

The competition is a modern twist on an old classic as historically Ireland has looked to our female population to find an individual who is polished, poised, has a social conscience and is able to represent themselves on a national stage. Now it is the turn of the gentlemen to shine.

Judged by an A list celebrity panel of Louis Walsh, Doireann Garrihy, Anne Doyle and Nathan Carter the night itself will certainly prove to be one not to miss on next years calendar. The competition organisers describe the show as a modern twist on an old classic as historically Ireland has looked to our female population to find an individual who is polished, poised, has a social conscience and is able to represent themselves on a national stage. Now it is the turn of the gentlemen to shine.
