Clonmel to beat to sound of the bodhrán

AFTER almost a decade, Fleadh Cheóil na hÉireann returns to Clonmel next month.

According to organisers An Comhaltas the south Tipperary town is set to attract 200,000 people with the promise: “It will be the best yet.”

An Comhaltas said Clonmel, having hosted the fleadh for three consecutive years from 1992, enjoyed a rich tradition of music and arts.
