Scoil Samhraidh
Shligigh Theas
Established in 1987, the South Sligo Summer School of Traditional Music, Song and Dance is held annually in Tubbercurry during the second week in July. The official opening takes place on the evening of the second Sunday in July and there follows a packed programme of formal and informal events for the week, including masterclasses, céilís, workshops, talks, concerts, sessions and lots more. There is a particular emphasis placed on the Sligo style of fiddle and flute playing and this, alongside an extended range of workshops and new innovative elements each year, attracts people of all ages and abilities from near and far to attend and spend a week of total immersion in the local culture here in our community.
