"Tullamore TradFest is a celebration of our rich musical heritage not just in Offaly but Ireland and beyond. We again have an overwhelming response from the traditional music community that reinforces the importance of preserving and promoting our musical traditions and culture. We would like once again to thank the local community in Tullamore who are so supportive of the TradFest weekend and we look forward to welcoming everyone, be they locals or those from farther afield for a weekend of fun, camaraderie, and the very best of Irish music. See you in March!”
