Derrygonnelly (from Irish Doire Ó gConaíle, meaning 'O'Connelly's oak grove') is a small village and townland in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. Near Lower Lough Erne, the village was home to 680 people at the 2011 census and dates to the Plantation era. It is situated within Fermanagh and Omagh district.
The village has a long history of Irish traditional music and each year in early October there is a celebration of local talent in memory of musicians Eddie Duffy and Mick Hoy. Musicians come from all over Ireland and from further afield to enjoy this festival which bases itself in any of Derrygonnelly's four pubs.
