Things to do in Sligo

Liam McPoyle

Hi all.

Myself and my other half are heading to Sligo for 3 nights from the 27th of August so we are wondering is there anything on in the locality - markets, festivals, cultural events etc etc, over those dates?

Nothing doing eh?

Yipeee!!... Another 'astroturfing' opportunity.

(let's get it started)

"I'm not connected with [insert business name] but I have heard that they are REALLY great, certainly much better than [insert competitors name]"... etc etc

(hopefully I'm wrong)

If you are in Sligo for the 30th of August there is the Lough Gill 10k swim taking place, there's always a nice atmosphere at that
