A town in Southeast Ireland, Wexford was home to a 10th-century Viking settlement, and characterised by numerous invasions that devastated the area. Although Wexford went through an economic depression in the mid-20th-century, it has returned to impressive form and is commonly visited by tourists that sightsee in the area and stay in the town’s hotels. Some arrive by ferry from France and Wales, since the Rosslare Port is a popular departure and arrival point for people who are visiting the area. Wexford is a waterfront destination that offers appealing things to do for people of all ages and interests.
Wexford is an exciting place for travellers to participate in horse-related activities. You might decide to spend an evening at Wexford Racecourse, a facility that hosts National Hunt races and competitions on the flat. Events happen from March through November, but this attraction is especially popular during the summer months, when races are held every Friday. While at the racecourse, you can take advantage of free parking. Also, if you get hungry, visit the on-site dining options. Whether you just want to grab a snack from one of the concession stands or sit down for a meal, both those options exist. People who’d rather take a more hands-on approach to equestrian activities will find many opportunities to go horse riding. It’s common for participants to leave their hotels and go on horseback excursions that last from several hours to several days. Whether you want to ride your horse across a beach or get lessons from a skilled professional rider, there are plenty of ways to enjoy equestrian activities in Wexford.
People often specifically plan to visit Wexford during the months of October and November each year because they want to attend events that are part of a themed gathering called the Wexford Festival Opera. This festival is one of the best in the world devoted to operatic music, so even if you aren’t accustomed to the genre yet, the events within this festival might serve as an excellent introduction. From its establishment over six decades ago, this themed gathering has highlighted certain works that were not well known before being chosen by festival organisers. If your tastes are a little more eclectic, there’s another fall festival known as the Wexford Fringe Festival From comedy performances to cabarets and even puppet shows, this event offers hundreds of things to do across a timespan of just over two weeks. Because these festivals occur around the same time and collectively welcome thousands of attendees from Ireland and beyond, research hotels in advance and choose one early to avoid disappointment.

From jewellery to woven shawls, plus wares geared towards tourists such as magnets, tee-shirts and key chains, you have plenty of options. Wexford is also known for its agriculture production, and in particular, cheese and strawberries. If you visit during a time when strawberries are in season, it’s common to see street vendors selling containers of the freshly ripened, sweet red fruits. If you’d prefer a larger retail destination, try the Gorey Shopping Centre. In addition to being visited by tourists who are browsing for souvenirs to bring back to their hotels, this destination is frequented by locals shopping for everyday products.
