So, the countdown is on to the launch of the festival.
Beginning with the Twinning ceremony, coinciding with the Gathering launch, we are very lucky to have the Gathering chairperson, Tim O'Connor, joining us on Thursday the 15th in the Castle.
Make sure to check out the wonderful Belladonna playing on the gig-rig in the Square from 9:30.
