The Low Down :
Never been to the festival yet! I know a few people who have gone throughout the years and have had great things to say. Its a fantastic weekend , full of lively bands,craic and drink.
One band in particular i would keep on eye on is Raglan Rodeo. A limerick rooted band with plenty of noise and a guarantee of one hell of a night out. Check them out over the festival at
Springhill Hotel - Saturday May 3rd 10.00 pm
Biddy Early's - Sunday May 4th 4.00 pm
Billy Byrnes - Sunday May 4th 10.00 pm
