Starting Monday in Sligo town.
Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann, the biggest traditional Irish music festival in the world.
The NINE day jamboree has attracted attendances of up to 400,000 ‘revellers’ in previous years.
And we have ONE Annie West Fleadh Cheoil print to give away to the reader who can correctly guess (or get closest to) the number of ‘folkies’ in Annie’s poster (above).

Approx. 10,100 folkies and a fair few faerie friends…
