The full programme of events for the 67th Cork International Choral Festival was launched in Cork City Hall on Thursday night, with Leeside set to resound to the sound of song from April 27 to May 1. It promises to be an even busier bank holiday weekend than usual in Cork, with Ed Sheeran also playing two concerts at Páirc Uí Chaoimh.
