An extra concert (on Saturday, 10th July) will be added to the published schedule of the ‘Ceol na gConallach’ series. The Ceol na gConallach concerts will be held in islann Chill Chartha and in the Parish Hall. The first festival due is the very popular File na bPist (Children’s Festival), which will take place this year on Easter Sunday and Monday. It was agreed to publish a full colour poster to advertise the event this year. The Kilcar Tourism website in currently under construction and will be live in the near future.
