One of our main aims is to bring Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann to Wexford. Tá sé ag teacht ... am éigin! In the meantime we will continue with our efforts to increase awareness of, and appreciation for, traditional culture in Wexford.

Fograí

Yet again there will be no fleadhanna this year - county, provincial or national. We remain at the mercy of the big bug, an chorónvíreas. Our hearts go out to everyone in Westmeath Comhaltas who we know have put in so much time and energy for an event which will not now happen for the 2nd year in a row. With so much pre-planning required and given the resources involved in running the event the decision is totally understandable. As the seanfhocal says: Tamall gan treoir, tamall na ndeor (Time without direction is a time of tears).

We held our 2nd annual Wexford Trad & Folk Weekend before the pandemic axe fell in March 2020. Bhí sé go h-iontach! That was the first and last (non-virtual) festival of the year in Wexford. There will be no festival this year. We wouldn't be great at that virtual stuff!

Má bhíonn suim agat sa cheol traidisiúnta bíonn áit agat so chraobh seo. Bígí linn! Membership applications/renewals for the year are now being taken. Join via the Membership page.

Comhaltas Logo

Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann is the largest group involved in the preservation and promotion of Irish traditional music. We’re a non-profit cultural movement with hundreds of local branches around the world, and as you can read in our history we’ve been working for the cause of Irish music since the middle of the last century (1951 to be precise). Our efforts continue with increasing zeal as the movement launches itself into the 21st century.
