Classical/Opera/Jazz Performances

Festival Title Sponsors, MBNA together with The Carrick Water Festival Committee and Artistic Director Gwendolyn Masin are proud to present the 4th Annual Carrick Water Festival from Friday 8th of August to Sunday 17th of August 2008.

Since its inception in 2005, the Festival has brought a range of musical talent to Carrick-on-Shannon, the intention, to reinforce the image of the Northwest as a desirable place to live, work and visit.  In 2008 the Festival has grown from a five day event to a week long festival with an even greater breadth of performances from a variety of musical genres. This year we are delighted to see the return of The Veronica Dunne Singers who will be performing at our key note event and back by popular demand are the hugely entertaining Black Magic Big Band. Festival goers will also enjoy many new acts including Lunfardia & Havana Son, The Slovak Festival Orchestra, Caroline Moreau and Redmond O'Toole & Cora Venus Lunny.

Once again we will have a full programme of Fringe Events planned adding to the very special atmosphere of the Festival.

We hope you and your friends and families will join us in August for what promises to be a memorable occasion and valuable addition to the Carrick-on-Shannon calendar of events.

Best wishes
The Festival Committee
