A week-long celebration of a healthier Gorey

WellWex Week is a eight-day festival week running from Saturday 12 to Saturday 19 September 2026, bringing together movement, wellbeing, ideas and community across venues throughout Gorey. Each event has its own identity and its own audience — while every one of them feels unmistakably part of a single, connected festival.

The programme deliberately spans the whole town: a free sunrise run and a buggy-friendly park walk sit alongside a founders' breakfast, a menopause panel, an art expo, a beauty and wellbeing showcase, and a HYROX-style closing arena. It is designed to be premium but accessible — with something genuinely open to every age, ability and budget.
