Thursday June 13th, 2013 will see Sligo celebrate the second annual Yeats Day. Sligo will come alive with a dawn to dusk celebration with something for everyone to enjoy.
Come along and join in the party in O’Connell Street from 3-6pm. Or why not have breakfast on Lough Gill.
There are many events taking place throughout the day and you can find the timetable here.
Not only can you enjoy breakfast on Lough Gill, but check out the 4.30pm Hazelwood Heritage Society-Rose of Inishfree cruise that will include Yeats poetry readings and music. I took it last year and it was one of the loveliest things I had ever done in Sligo.
It sounds wonderful Kate.
So sad we won’t be in Sligo on Yeats’ Day 😦 A reason for us to visit again another year?
Absolutely Susan 🙂
