Message from Manchester Irish Festival Co-Chairs

Cllr. John Flanagan & Esther Dolan

Welcome you all to our 2008 City wide Irish Festival and invite you all to join in the many events taking place between the 7th – 20th March.

The festival is a showcase incorporating all the best of Irish talent & culture which has long been an integral part of Manchester’s calendar.

As we embark on the 2008 festival, we ask everyone in the city or beyond to join us in turning Manchester "Green" and make this our best Festival yet.

We would also like to publicly thank the Festival Committee, who are all volunteers and give a lot of time and effort each year, to organize the festival for everyone.

If you would like any information about how to hold or attend an event during the Festival please email us on : info@irishfestival.co.uk
Happy St Patrick’s Day !

John Flanagan & Esther Dolan.
