28th, 29th & 30th August 2009 - Line Up To Be Confirmed

The festival is dedicated to delivering a top quality weekend, bursting with great music with entertainment for young and old alike.

Once a year in August music pilgrims come from all over the world to the Dunmore East Bluegrass Festival to listen to authentic bluegrass music. Bands play to ecstatic crowds, spread out comfortably at 6 venues, both indoors and outdoors. There also fine dining, sunbathing, swimming, dancing and jamming all day and night - a Bluegrass picker's paradise

A full programme will be available at the pubs and hotels prior to the start of the festival. There is no entry fee and each of the groups play at all of the venues throughout the weekend - and from as early as 12 noon on the Saturday and Sunday.

Dunmore is made for the saunter, a gait best employed when taking in a village soaking in atmosphere. That it has been married to a bluegrass festival for the last 13 years makes the walk even more enriching. The festival organisers can be contacted at
