Find and enjoy traditional Irish music, dance and song this summer 2023

Hello everyone!

I am an Australian with half Irish roots - lived in Ireland for 6 years and now back in Australia.
I am a dancer - set dancing and sean nós dancing-  and for the last 10 years I have written a blog celebrating the best of Irish traditional music and dance - www.IrishBliss.org 
(I also have a YouTube channel teaching basic sean nós steps and little dances @EasyIrishDance)

Sometimes finding the best in Ireland can be a bit tricky- not everything is on Google!
I have compiled a comprehensive listing of traditional Irish music and dance festivals and summer schools across Ireland for this summer 2023. https://irishbliss.org/2023/04/30/2023-traditional-irish-music-and-dance-summer-schools-and-festivals/
The blog listing is in DATE order or you can see a MAP that will give you all the details of each event by location.
This is not a commercial activity for me, nor are there any pesky ads on my site.:)

Wishing you are a wonderful experience in Ireland with the very best music & dance.

Hi Nora,

Thanks so much for posting this here, it is a wonderful page full of very helpful information!

We often get questions on where to see Irish dancing and what events and festivals are happening, this will be a super resource for us all. 💚

It sounds like you have had a great 6-year experience with us here on the island of Ireland, where were your ancestors from?

Hi,
Thanks very much.
Yes, I lived in Cork and then Dublin.
My folks are from Northern Ireland - Fermanagh, Armagh and Antrim.
Thanks again for your reply.
Nora

Yep and some of the supposedly helpful domains are no longer running.
