NomadÉire returns for its third edition from September 13-20, 2025, bringing together digital nomads, remote workers, entrepreneurs, and locals for an unforgettable week-long celebration in Inishowen, County Donegal. This unique event blends professional development with authentic Irish cultural experiences against the backdrop of Ireland’s most rugged and beautiful coastline.
Event Overview
The main conference takes place from September 14-17 at the Inishowen Gateway Hotel, while the festival runs from September 13-20, with its base at Inishowen Innovation Coworking Hub. This intimate gathering is designed for digital nomads, remote workers, entrepreneurs, creatives, and locals who want to explore the intersection of location independence and sustainable rural development.
