More than 300 tractors took part in the tenth Inish Tractor run which was dedicated to the memory of 18-year-old Thomas Gallagher.
The tractors completed a circuit across north and east Inishowen after setting off from Malin Head at 11am on Sunday to raise funds for Donegal Hospice, Friends of Inishowen Hospice, and Bumblance Children's Ambulance Service.
Hundreds of people lined the route to take in the spectacle. The cavalcade travelled through Culdaff, Moville, Quigley’s Point, Meencha, Clonmany and Carndonagh before arriving in Malin for 5pm. It was followed by an after-party concert in front of around 2,000 people at Malin Stables which was headlined by Nathan Carter.
The event, one of the biggest of its kind in the country, has grown over the ten years thanks to huge community support.

Thomas Gallagher died alongside his friend Alana Harkin in a road traffic collision near Gleneely last November.
His family thanked everyone who made the event happen and the people of Gleneely and Culdaff, as well as the wider community, for all the support they have received since.
“Our hearts are broken, our spirits are crushed but the help and love given to us by everyone helps us to mend and recover, “ the family said in a social media post. “And finally we wish to acknowledge and thank the Harkin family. We keep them in our prayers and are inspired by them.”
