Carrigallen Summer Festival
In early May 1997 a committee, under the chairmanship of Patrick Mitchell decided to run an annual festival in the village of Carrigallen. It was decided that the August Bank Holiday Weekend would be the ideal time to commence the celebrations. The festival is now in it's 12th year and continues to be an ongoing success with a variety of events planned for 2010.
