Fleadh Áth Cliath

Futurecrook

I'm involved in organising the Dublin Fleadh this year and we have a few events taking place in the week running up to the competitions:

On Tuesday 5th May the official launch will take place in Clasac on the Alfie Byrne Rd., Clontarf, from 9pm onwards. There will be a great session taking place, as well as refreshments (tea, cake, wine, cheese...) being served.

On Wednesday 6th May there will be a gala concert taking place, again in Clasac, from 8pm - 11pm. Artists include, Tom Doorley, Mairéad Ní Fhlathartha, Seosaimhín Ní Bheaglaíoch, Martin Tourish and Friends, Diabhlaíocht and a few others. Tickets are €15 for adults, €10 concession and €30 for a family ticket. For further information feel free to pm me.

There will also be sessions taking place in the Goblet in Beaumont on Thursday 7th and Friday 8th from about 9pm onwards.

Everyone is welcome and we'd really love to see you there as we want to make this fleadh memorable.

I've gotten a promise that there won't be any accidents this time, and if there are, I'm not taking responsibility for them. :pac:
