Up to 80 events over the festival weekend, and a fantastic time guaranteed, musicians, visitors and locals alike.
Acoustic music - dozens of styles - at its best, in the village of Sixmilebridge and the Folk Park at Bunratty Castle, County Clare in Ireland.
Sessions, concerts, pub gigs, recitals, a ceili, and maybe a poetry reading make up a sensational weekend of delightful musical experiences, where the artistes and audience get equal satisfaction from the events and the atmosphere!
Sarah Savoy said of the 2012 festival:
The weekend was an impressive job of organization with so many bands and venues, ...... I also want to say that this town knows how to PARTY and I felt like I was back home in Louisiana. ..... Thank you so much for having brought us here to see what a great scene y'all have going on!

The Courthouse is family-friendly, and in the Bunratty Castle Hotel, you can enjoy live music while you eat.
The
Bunratty Folk Park added a new dimension to our thirteenth festival, with so many events in the park's unique settings.
