Fleadh fever to attract 50,000 music fans
Local businesses have come up with €150,000 towards the cost of running the event which, the organisers estimate, is worth around €10 million to the area.
Lovers of Irish music are in for a treat and a selection of ceili bands will keep dancers’ feet tapping throughout the week. A special dance floor has been fitted in a dome beside the Tintean Theatre and around 1,000 polka set enthusiasts are due to attend.
