We are thrilled to announce this year’s Aifreann Fleadh Nua, taking place on Sunday, June 1st, at 11:30 am in the Cathedral. This special event promises to be a joyous celebration of traditional Irish music and culture.

For those who would like to add their voices to the Fleadh Nua Choir, a preparatory workshop will be held on Saturday, May 31st, from 10am to 11am in the Maria Assumpta Hall. Led by Fiona Walsh, the Cathedral Choir Director, this workshop is open to everyone. With guidance from traditional singers, the choir will rehearse hymns and responses to create a harmonious blend of voices.

Musicians are also warmly invited to join the Trad Group, led by Therese McInerney of Clare FM. The group will perform lively jigs and reels before and during the Mass, adding to the celebratory atmosphere of the event.

We hope Aifreann Fleadh Nua will be a memorable occasion that highlights the richness of Irish music and culture. For inquiries, please contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
