Organised by the non-profit Roots In Tunes, the Ethno Ireland workshops covering folk, world and traditional music are all about bringing young musicians from all corners of the globe together. To compare diddley-aye notes. Having taken over Lough Dan last year, for 2026, it's Roundwood's parish hall from August 17th to 22nd, with a grand finale concert in The Mermaid to close. And the call is out for Irish trad musicians between 18 and 30 with the €350 signup covering accommodation, transport, meals and events.
