AUGUST 2008 1-3 Dublin Irish Festival This event features more than 60 musical acts from the U.S. and Ireland performing music on eight stages (from Celtic rock to traditional ballads). Three cultural stages feature storytelling, folklore, music and hands-on workshops. Visitors can discover Ireland’s traditional instruments while learning to play the fiddle or tin whistle. Or be transported back into Irish history when they visit a 10th Century Irish village. Irish dancers compete in the Columbus Feis—a competition that attracts 1,300 of the nation’s best Ceili dancers. Visitors can watch sheep herding demonstrations, explore their genealogy, shop the Emerald Isle for imported good, attend a Gaelic mass, learn to make a proper scone or sample an endless variety of Irish food and drink. Admission is $8-10 for adults and admission for children is free. Call (614) 410-4545 for more information.
