Jim Dowling Festival 2020

With all that is going around at the moment regarding the Covid-19 we are tentatively announcing that we can look forward to another great Jim Dowling Uilleann Pipe and Trad Festival for 2020. We will keep an eye on the situation and make a call down the line closer to the dates or worst case scenario, reschedule the event.

Taking place in Glengarriff from Thursday 18th to Sunday 21st June it promises to be another cracking festival with some great acts on the way.

Kicking off the Thursday night we have 3 On The Bund, a great new band who came together after meeting in the University of Limerick’s prestigious Irish World Academy in March 2019.

On the Friday we are bringing the legends – Andy Irvine and Donal Lunny with support from Padraig McGovern who will play at the Eccles Hotel. This will be a gig not to be missed, nuff said!

On the Saturday we have Ulaid and Ross Ainslie with Stephen Byrne at the Eccles Hotel. Some array of talent here, a great show for sure.

Added to this we will have the usual mix of sessions around the village, with workshops and other special events also taking place.
