Barbara Ní Fheargail speaking at the launch event
The launch event for the 2024 Fleadh Cheoil na Mumhan took place in St Patrick’s College, Thurles, last Friday night.
The week-long event will kick-off on Sunday, July 14, and run up until Saturday, July 20, with a jam-packed schedule of events planned throughout the week to ensure visitors from Tipperary, and across the country, are well entertained.
Hosted by the Tipperary County Board CCÉ, this will be the third time Thurles will play host to the Fleadh Cheoil na Mumhan, after the 1968 and 1979 editions were held in the town.
The week will get underway with a free event on Sunday night. “Tradult,” will take place at 4pm in The County Bar, while a concert will take place in The Monks Bar at 7pm.
On the Monday, there will be a Ukrainian musical exhibition, among other events, in the Source Arts Centre, with a singing session led by Tadhg Maher in The Monks Bar at 9pm.
Tuesday will see “Bru Ború Summer Show,” take place in The Source Arts Centre, while on Wednesday, “Sean Nós Dance Workshop with Ranóg Townsend” will take place from 8:30pm in the Source, at a cost of €15 per ticket.
The Ursuline campus will host events on the Thursday. The “Slide and Polka Workshops,” will cost €15 to attend, and will run from 11am to 4pm, while a “Best of Tipp” scone making competition will take place from 2pm to 4pm in the County Bar, before a history of Tipperary music in The Monks Bar at 8pm.
A concert with Garadice will take place from 7:30pm in The Source Arts Centre on the Friday, with a youth trad disco running in Hayes’ Hotel from 7pm to 11pm, both costing €20
Finally, to close out the festivities, “Céili with Rise the Dust,” will take over the Premier Hall on Saturday, costing €12 for a ticket.
More information on all the events taking place throughout the week can be found on the Munster Fleadh website, www.munsterfleadh.ie.
With plenty of events being hosted, and plenty of variety between the different acts, there will be enough at the Fleadh Ceoil na Mumhan to keep everybody entertained, as the organisers look forward to welcoming their guests.
