15th Irish Music festival

The Irish Music Festival is being held to celebrate the most popular and the well known Irish National Day - "St. Patrick´s Day". It is celebrated in many ways - from festive marches, Irish music and Dance to dressing in green as well as colouring everything and anything including beer to green

The Festival starts on the 15th March in Caffrey's Irish Bar, Staromestské nám.10. and James Joyce The Irish Pub, U Obecního dvora 4.

We would like to introduce - Celtic Whisper (Limerick) - a flashback to the ballad days with your favourites for the 10th year - you can't resist them so we just must bring them back.

This year we bring a new twist to our Festival and are proud to introduce Munster Rugby Supporters Choir.The MRSC was founded in 2008 in Munster, a province of Ireland renowned for its sporting heritage. It comprises 50 members from all over the province & first performed at the official opening of Thomond Park, the true home of Irish Rugby, before Munsters game against the New Zealand All Blacks.

Since then the choir has performed before most of Munsters major games. They have appeared on Ireland's most popular television show, the Late Late Show, on several radio shows & they performed for the opening ceremony of the Special Olympic Games.

In Prague they will delight the audience with many famous Irish Songs old & new under the musical direction of Anita Mahon.
