Friday June 14th 2019
Friday night is dedicated to music song and fun.
Saturday June 15th
On Saturday, shanties hit the street throughout the village: We host a literary event, specialised workshops and the main festival concert.
The Duck, Rowing, Swim and Boat Races start at the Pier but are viewable from the Village Road.
Sunday June 16th, and don’t forget, it’s dress like a pirate day!
Sunday brings us close to the sea with our remembrance and blessing of the boats, lifeboat open day, boat racing and of course more Shanties
The Duck, Rowing, Swim and Boat Races start at the Pier but are viewable from the Village Road.
NOTE
All water events are weather dependent and subject to change. Times noted here are guidelines and more accurate timings can be obtained from the festival committee.
Events run subsequent to one another and much of the action can viewed from the pier, Sligo Yacht Club (swimming race start point) or just along the main village promenade.
We will have as much music outside as weather permits.
Thanks to our sponsors and friends of the festival which support the work of the RNLI.
