The Sun shone all afternoon to welcome back the legendary Full Irish Radio Festival to Old Bedians Sports Ground in Didsbury on Sunday 29th August 2010.

Thousands flocked to the annual Bank holiday family orientated Irish fun day which this year was officially launched by Withington MP John Leech. In his opening address at the outdoor event the popular MP said “It is great to see the return of this popular Family orientated Irish festival to Didsbury. ALL FM Radio’s Full Irish Radio Team have worked very hard to put on such a fantastic event and I am delighted to come along to support it. I hope that the annual celebration of all things Irish will remain at permanent fixture here for years to come.”

The annual event which is organised by Joe Casserley and his team of volunteers from the award winning Full Irish Radio show on ALL FM Radio is a celebration of all things Irish. The Day at the Sports Ground in Didsbury featured a host of Live Irish Bands who had flown over from Ireland to play on a specially erected outdoor stage, Children’s Gaelic Games competitions, Dancing displays, Irish Stalls and a massive Children’s Fun Fair.
