Féile Séamus Creagh

[David Dalton]

Féile Séamus Creagh is a festival of Traditional Music, Song and Dance from
Newfoundland and Ireland. It is held in memory of the late fiddle master
Séamus Creagh. The festival features top performers, and indeed, tradition
bearers from both the Newfoundland musical tradition, and its forebear, the
Irish musical tradition.

It will be held this year from September 4--8, 2024 in Freshwater
(Carbonear), St. John’s, and Ferryland, on the Avalon Peninsula
of Newfoundland.

The performers for 2024 are:

MATT CRANITCH, JACKIE DALY& PAUL DE GRAE from Ireland,

THE CAME THE DAWN BAND from Newfoundland

EOIN O RIABHAIGH, JOHNNY McCARTHY & AOIFE BLAKE from Ireland

ANITA BEST & SANDY MORRIS from Newfoundland

ELEANOR DAWSON, LINDA BYRNE & JOE BYRNE from Newfoundland

LEE DUNNE, BRAD KLUCOWICZ, DARREN BROWNE WITH
MAXINE DUNNE from Newfoundland

For more details on performers plus a schedule and to buy tickets
online (though they should still be available at the door), see
https://www.nltradfest.com/ . The lecture on September 4
is free but you need to reserve a space. The price of each
evening concert is CAN$25 (US$18.29 or EURO-16.58)
and they are indoors in an intimate setting.

The performers usually give instructional workshops
during the day on the Saturday, for CAN$50, lunch
and tax included. For details see

(I guess the 22 should be 24, but the page says 2024).
