Brian Boru festival planned

A MARCH of Warriors to the Phoenix Park on Easter Sunday, April 20, 2014, is being proposed by a new committee as one of the special events to commemorate the 1,000th anniversary of a former High King of Ireland.

Organised as a nationally recognised charity, ‘warriors’ would depart from several venues around the country to the Phoenix Park where they would spend the night with the assistance of the army and civil defence.

On Easter Monday, it is envisaged they will march from Phoenix Park to Clontarf under their respective banners, including members of O’Brien clans from around the world. A full programme of events is planned for Clontarf 2014.
