09 Mar 21 - 03:49 AM (#4096779) Subject: ireland foljk festival news From: The Sandman We are sorry to have to announce the cancellation of our Fastnet Sea Shanty Festival planned for 19 21June 2021. The current situation with the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak is a worry for all, and no matter how matters progress in the next month or so we have decided it would not be appropriate to continue with our plans for this year. This is a big disappointment for us but the health and safety of our visitors, from home and overseas and for those involved with the organisation of the Festival is our number one priority. Again I am sorry that we cannot proceed but in the meantime please be careful and stay safe. 2021 gig will be honoured for june weekend of 19 2022 . Whether a small low key singaround or and music session takes place is in the balance depending on circumstances over the next 2 to3 months |
