The 3rd Annual Tulla Traditional Music Festival is a weekend packed with wonderful music, song, dance, concerts, céilithe and workshops. This year we are showcasing some wonderful fiddle and flute players, with special guests, Martin Hayes, Mike Rafferty and Willie Kelly. Our Fiddle and Flute Rectial on Sunday evening is not to be missed with all of the above joined by Eileen O'Brien and Deirdre McSherry and of course our local virtuosos Vincent Griffin and Paddy O'Donoghue. A weekend of set dancing to the music of our own great Tulla Céili Band on Saturday night and the closing Céíli on Sunday night which has a magic of its own with music by Andrew MacNamara, Martin Hayes, Mark Donnellan and Jim Corry. Saturday night's Concert in St. Peter and Paul's Church is a two part concert featuring Martin Hayes and Denis Cahill, you will enjoy an hour of Martin and Denis performing their unique and extraordinary style of music. This will be followed in a completely contrasting style by the wonderful foursome At The Rackett, when you will experience the joy, spirit and pure fun that is Irish music at its best.
