The Fleadh Cheoil (Festival of Music) is an annual Irish music competition organized by the Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann (CCÉ —-that means “Gathering of Musicians of Ireland” in the Old Irish language.

The Comhaltas is a non-profit group involved in the preservation and promotion of Irish traditional music.

This year’s Fleadh was held August 16 to 23 at Tullamore, a county in midlands Ireland and better known as the home of the renowned Irish whiskey brand -Tullamore Dew

Tullamore hosted the largest festival of music, song and dance. Over 200,000 people from all over the world gathered together to participate in Ireland's largest cultural celebration.

 

I was there one weekend as part of the thousands who just can’t get enough of the cool vibe in the streets and pubs of Tullamore. I’m definitely going to this festival next year.
