This June, Heir Island will welcome back, for the third time, 25 amateur classical musicians,
many of whom are doctors from the European and Irish Doctors orchestras, with a few
friends thrown in for good measure, to host the ever evolving Festival of Music on Heir, from
3rd to 8th June 2024.
This year’s festival will be bigger and better than ever! In addition to open rehearsals and the
finale concert at the Boathouse on Heir Island on Saturday 8th at 12.15pm, the Festival will
also be bringing music to Community Centre on Sherkin and St Matthews Church, Baltimore
with concerts on Friday 7th . We’re also adding another creative element to this year’s Festival
with an evening of storytelling and folk music on Wednesday 5th which will take place at the
Boathouse on Heir. Everyone is welcome!
As part of the Festival, FOMAH will be raising money for LISHEENS HOUSE which the Festival has supported previously.
