IN PICTURES: Brilliant Tipperary Festival closed by country legend Mike Denver

While the Tipperary Festival had the perfect start with country star, Michael English, it had the perfect end, with Galway performer, Mike Denver. Known as “The Galway Boy”, Denver is one of Ireland’s top Entertainers, and he certainly lived up to that billing at the Tipperary Festival on Sunday May 11.

With his excellent backing band Denver presented a two and a half hour high energy show which featured all his ‘Hits’ including ‘Tommy K’, ‘Wasn’t that a Party’, ’Galway Girl’, ‘Blown Away’, plus ‘hits’ from the 60’s and 70’s. His audience is vast throughout Ireland, North and South, and that was evident by the large numbers that travelled from around the country to Tipperary on Sunday night.

A capacity crowd was on the floor throughout the night, dancing to the great sound of Denver, who delivered a first
class performance. Great credit is due to the Tipperary Festival Committee who organised a fantastic 4 nights of entertainment and brought people from far and wide to Tipperary. It certainly was a great boost to Tipperary Town and the organisers should take a well deserved bow.
