Top acts: Robert Mizzell to perform at Longford's Daytime Barn Dance for Mary's Meals

Country music fans in Longford are all set for a festival extravaganza with the Day- Time Barn Dance in aid of Mary's Meals.

Mary's Meals is a global movement that sets up school feeding programmes in the world's poorest communities, where hunger and poverty prevent children from gaining an education.

Local country and Irish fans are getting ready for an unforgettable afternoon of music, moves, and memories at Longford’s Daytime Barn Dance.
