A Warm Welcome

It gives the committee of Féile Cheoil Larry Reynolds great pleasure to welcome you once again to Ballinasloe as we celebrate our 13th year of traditional Irish music, song, dance, culture, and heritage.

What began in 2014 as a tribute concert to honour the extraordinary musical legacy of Larry Reynolds and to promote the unique East Galway style of music has grown into a vibrant and much-loved Féile, rich in community spirit and cultural pride.

Over the years, Féile Cheoil Larry Reynolds has become a celebration of the rich traditions of East Galway music while bringing together musicians, dancers, singers, craftspeople, and visitors from near and far. This year’s programme once again o‡ers something for everyone, with an exciting mix of events, lively music sessions, workshops, céili, heritage events, competitions, exhibitions, CD launches, and our ever-popular Interactive Crafters Village.

We extend our sincere thanks to all our loyal supporters, artists, and visitors who continue to support the Féile year after year. A special word of thanks to the people of Ballinasloe, whose warmth, generosity, and genuine Céad Míle Fáilte make this town the vibrant heart of the festival and to our sponsors, your continued support is essential to making this annual celebration possible.

Féile Cheoil Larry Reynolds is a non-profit community festival, and it costs approximately €30,000 each year to bring this wonderful weekend of music, culture, and heritage to Ballinasloe. We are proud that most events remain free of charge, ensuring that everyone can take part and enjoy the celebrations.
