Fairport at Trad Fest Dublin 2017

[Mark G]

After a long gap (at least 7 years since Fairport Acoustic gig at Whelan's), Fairport are coming back to Dublin in January 2017

And check out the rest of the festival too - some seriously good music!

FC or Donal Lunny?.....I'm in a quandary. Will be going to one or the other....will be there until Sunday afternoon. Accomodation booked already.

One gripe is that there is no 'basket' on the ticket site - so you have to buy each gig separately. Plus the fees each time, and postage as the queues to collect last year were horrendous!

This is I think, the first date of the 2017 Wintour.

Peggy told me last night that the next two gigs will be Belfast & Celtic Connections. So an international Wintour for the 50th!

i was just thinking that it was around the same time as Celtic Connections.
although i might give it a miss next year as i'm only just over whatever it was i caught there this january!
