10% of the outdoor bar sales will be donated to Newforge Taggers
This year we have partnered with Newforge Taggers, an amazing disability sports charity founded in 2006 that champions inclusion through rugby. Newforge Taggers was the first club on the island of Ireland to establish a tag rugby team for people with learning difficulties.
This year marks their 20th anniversary, celebrating two decades of achievement, inclusion and community impact. To celebrate this milestone year, we’re giving back to them! 10% of sales from the outdoor bar over Bullapalooza will be going straight to support the Newforge Taggers and the amazing work they do. So you can drink good beer & do a bit of good too.
