Magee of Donegal are delighted to celebrate Donegal 550 with a day-long event exploring their heritage as one of Donegal Town’s oldest department stores with a rich history of weaving in South West Donegal. 

Join the team in store on Saturday, 17th August for a day of fun. There will be heritage-inspired talks with  Chairman and CEO Lynn and Rosy Temple who will talk about the history of Magee of Donegal and Magee 1866.

Ocean FM will be broadcasting from outside the store, as well as heritage window displays, music, handweaving demonstrations, tastings from a selection of amazing suppliers in our Artisan Food Market and Weaver’s Loft Bistro and of course new arrivals for men and women from the AW24 Magee 1866 collection.

This event is free of charge. All welcome.
