Sister Clare Crockett; All Or Nothing

Fleadh Cheoil na Mumhan 2024 saw all disciplines come together for a massive weekend. With over 130 slots in their timetable, it’s hard to believe they had the energy for sessions on top of it!

The event decides who goes on to Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann 2024, and from ceílí dance to concertina, Duhallow’s teens made an impact in Thurles.

While competition was strong, the weekend included a concert headlined by Garadice that served as the perfect Friday night event. Music and dance were key components, but with workshops, storytelling, and even some classes in Gaeilge, there was something for everyone.

Culture is the focus of Comhaltas; Their branches are all over the country, and Comhairle na Mumhan has been in operation since 1960, working hard to preserve Ireland’s traditions.

Those who placed in 1st and 2nd place are heading to Wexford for the 4th to 11th of August, and timetables are already available on the fleadhcheoil.ie website.

We wanted to point our spotlight on Duhallow’s fantastic entrants with a list of only some of the vast talent inside. Well done to all those involved, and good luck!!
