I'm in belfast at the moment..... and to be honest the sessions I've been to have been a bit exclusive (eg duos paid to provide a "session" - nothing wrong with that ... but no real chance of joining in if thats what you want to do)

here is a good list sessions around Northern Ireland

I'm off to a friendly one (everyone welcome to join in)tonight just outside Belfast at the " Crown & Shamrock"

having said that there are sessions on around the town most nights, donegal is the same... just ask the locals they know where they are on, and now that its almost July there is more likely to be music put on during the week for tourists rather than just at weekends. I was in dunfanaghy (Co Donegal) about 3 weeks ago, stayed in a lovely hostel just outside the town

I'm here for another 2 weeks before I head back to australia PM if I can help
