Meaghers Pharmacy Group is bringing health and wellness to the heart of Bord Bia Bloom with the launch of the Meaghers 360° Wellness Village, a brand-new, immersive destination at Ireland’s most celebrated festival.
Taking place over the June Bank Holiday weekend, Bord Bia Bloom will, for the first time in its 20-year history, feature a dedicated wellness area — delivered in partnership with Meaghers Pharmacy Group as official Wellness Partner for Bloom 2026, which takes place from Thursday, May 28 to Monday, June 1.
The Meaghers 360° Wellness Village, marks a milestone moment for both organisations, celebrating 25 years of Meaghers Pharmacy Group and 20 years of Bord Bia Bloom, while reflecting the growing appetite among Irish audiences for trusted, expert-led wellbeing experiences.
Set within the central lawn of Bloom’s iconic 70-acre Phoenix Park site, the Meaghers 360° Wellness Village, will offer a vibrant, immersive programme designed to educate, inspire and empower visitors to live healthier, happier lives.
At its core will be the Meaghers 360° Wellness Stage, hosting expert talks, panel discussions and low-to-mid tempo movement and exercise classes throughout the festival.
Sessions will cover some of the most relevant health topics facing modern Ireland today, including hormone health, gut health, healthy ageing, sleep, stress, inflammation, movement, nutrition and mental wellbeing.
Alongside the stage programme, visitors will experience a curated collection of premium wellness brand stands, interactive wellness experiences, health screenings and immersive installations — creating meaningful opportunities for learning, engagement and personal connection.
The wellness area will feature a standout line-up of Ireland’s most trusted voices across health, lifestyle and wellbeing, including Oonagh O’Hagan, Prof Mary Ryan, Laura Dowling, Miriam Hussey, Clare McKenna, Mark Fennell, Brian Pennie, Jennifer Rock, Professor Niall Moyna and Prof Donal O’Shea.
They will offer expert insights on subjects including gut health, hormone health, inflammation, sleep, stress management, movement, nutrition, mental wellbeing and much more.
Also in the village, Meaghers will be running a Health Hub and a Wellness Check-In service where a range of tests – including blood pressure checks, carotenoid screening, scalp analysis and pelvic floor and core analysis — will be carried out on the spot.
Meaghers’ philosophy has been rooted in wellness since owner Oonagh O’Hagan acquired her first store on Baggot Street in Dublin in 2001. Oonagh has gone on to establish the Meaghers chain of pharmacies, and online store, as trusted authorities on whole-person, preventative health.
The Meaghers 360° Wellness Village, brings this philosophy to life on a national stage, encouraging people to see pharmacies not just as places you visit when you’re unwell, but as partners in staying well for life.
In 2024, Meaghers launched Pharmacy 360°, a fully integrative approach to viewing a person’s health. It brings together traditional pharmacy expertise with lifestyle medicine, preventative care, nutrition, movement, sleep, stress management and mental wellbeing to act as a whole-health partner — empowering people to take preventative steps to improve their overall health through, consultations, education and science-backed wellness solutions that support every stage of life.
Oonagh O’Hagan, CEO of Meaghers Pharmacy Group, said: “We are delighted to be partnering with Bord Bia Bloom to deliver their first wellness venture to their wonderful festival. For 25 years, Meaghers has been rooted in wellness — supporting people not just when they are unwell, but in staying well every day.
“People are seeking trusted information, expert guidance and experiences that nourish mind, body and lifestyle. By bringing a modern, holistic approach to wellbeing right to the heart of Ireland’s largest festival, we hope to inspire healthier habits that last long after Bloom ends. As every healthcare professional knows, the best health outcomes come from prevention, not cure.”
