PORT WILLIAM FOLK FESTIVALThis is a great wee festival. Port William is right down in the south west of Scotland. Obviously great for Scots and north English but it is only 25 minutes from the Belfast Stranraer boat.
I played the festival last year with my band and had a really great time. It is small but then that makes the sessions all that much better!!
The festival will be taking place on the 28th - 30th September. Artists include...
Mairead Ni Mhaonaigh + Dermot Byrne (Altan) Paddy Glackin + Michael O'Domhnaill (The Bothy Band) Ceolbeg Dave Francis + Mari Campbell
Tickets for both Friday and Saturday night concerts are under £10. Camping is available (with shower block) for £2, and is free for weekend ticket holders.
