The 2023 Iúr Cinn Fleadh got off to an amazing start yesterday with two wonderful sailings on Newry Ship Canal. The weather could not have been kinder for passangers as they made their way down the waterway on the fantastic Brian Boru.
The TenX9 event in the Phoenix heard some amazing stories from some amazing people on the theme 'Lost'. Finishing the night at the Railway Bar, Blackie O'Connell mesmorised the massive turnout with his pipe skills.
Today there's a feast of trad music at venues throughout the city and a childrens music workshop in Newry Baptist Centre.
