The Inishowen sisters' appearance at the one of the world’s biggest musical festivals will be their second, the last being in 2014.

Karen, Lorna and Joleen McLaughlin will be appearing at the Acoustic Stage stage of the iconic festival in Somerset - which attracts more than 200,000 music fans - on Sunday at 1pm.

Other Donegal acts that have appeared at the Worthy Farm venue over the years include Clannad, Altan, Rainy Boy Sleep - the stage name of the late Stephen Martin - and The Inishowen Gospel Choir.

The Glastonbury performance marks the beginning of a summer of festival appearances for the group which will see them appear at eight festivals in Ireland, England and Scotland. They will also take on a nine-date tour of the east coast of the US in July and August.
