The preliminary programme for Consairtín 2015, the national concertina convention, is now available to view at www.consairtin.ie. The festival will take place in Ennis, Co Clare, from 10 to 12 April and we have added some very attractive new features to the schedule. Further events and names will be added as we confirm performers in the coming weeks. Online registration for classes, as well as our new specialist workshops and practical hands-on instrument maintenance tutorials, opens through our website on 1 January. We will also be posting details of accommodation packages in Ennis to suit different budgets. Keep in touch with our news through our Facebook page: Consairtin. Ag súil go mór le sibh a fheiceáil in Inis mí Aibreáin seo chugainn. Áine agus Tim
