Ross D (also known as Ross Donegan) is a popular folk singer and musician. He regularly performs traditional Irish ballads and folk songs, sharing his music with a dedicated global following on social media.
Award winning wedding band, After Dark are bound to be a hit. One of the best party bands to ever grace the Irish music scene, After Dark blows a breath of fresh air into an already congested market. With a combination of over four decades of experience between them, these four passionate musicians really have to be heard to be believed.
The Druids, winners of the prestigious Irish Folk Music Award for Best Live Act, have been enchanting audiences since their formation in 2008 by founding members Mick O'Brien and Gary Lawlor. Over the years, the band has evolved with the addition of master accordion player Neil Harney from Athlone and Dublin guitarist Kevin Rooney.
A variety of food including international cuisine is available for purchase in the Potato Market from 10am to 6pm. The ice-cream vans will be located in the taxi rank. Various craft stalls on the day on South Main Street include scented dried flowers, crochet crafts, hand made bags, Murano glass, wood carvings, candles, photo and art exhibitions. The mounted garda unit will be present on the day.
“We invite people to come along to dance, sing along, enjoy and have fun on the day,” said the organisers.
