Cork Folk Festival
The Cork Folk Festival will take place from September 29th to October 2nd 2016 . It is an annual music event that takes place in Ireland’s southern capitol, Cork.
The 35 year old festival is emerging as one of the most important folk & traditional music events in Ireland and has a growing reputation in Europe.
Performances take place in concert halls, music venues, in 30 bars and on the Streets. It features concerts with international, cutting edge and established artists plus lectures, workshops, children’s events, and traditional set dancing.
The event has a strong focus on local Cork City, Sliabh Luachra and Cuil Aodha music and song so prepare for plenty of polkas, slides and harrier ballads.
