NEW! After D’After Party!
We kept the craic going at our newest event - Heading to the Basement Bar at The Hat Factory for an exclusive ticketed event with Seanie & James and The Kenneth Egan Trad Disco.
Seanie & James
Seanie & James are a lively 2 piece band who play a huge mixture of music from Irish folk/rebel to modern day covers.
What better way to end the St Patrick’s Festival than with ‘The Siege of Ennis.’ You don’t have to know the steps for this fun dance but if you just bring energy and a willingness to get it wrong - you’ll have the craic.
