‘Shanakee’ – 1st Sunday of every month. (Next gig 8th March)
I’d urge everyone to get down to Edinburgh Gardens on the 15th March for the annual St. Patrick’s Family Festival.
The event has been going now for over 7 years and is attracting a larger crowd each year.
It’s jam packed with music from the Van Morrison Tribute Band, Saoirse, Co-cheol and Vince Brophy and also has the Kilmurray, Mulcahy, Ayres and Comhaltas dancing schools – always a huge favourite with the kids.
This year also sees the introduction of a session tent for trad musos to play to their hearts content.
There’s food and drink available or you can bring your own picnic; petting zoo and children’s performers, kids races . . . it goes on and on.
Bring yourself, your friends, family and have a great day with a distinctive Irish flavor!
