Fete de la Musique - why not in Ireland

On the 21st. of June each year French people celebrate Fete de la Musique. It is also celebrated in other European countries but to my knowledge not in Ireland. Surprising when you consider the strength of music and song in the Irish culture.
I was introduced to Fete de la Music in a beautiful perched village in the Hautes Pyrenees called Castlenou. There, perched on the hillside in the shade of the castle towering overhead, the proprietor Yvan Blavette puts on a most enjoyable evening of food, wine and music.

If you travel a little farther into the mountains you will come to Villefranch-de-Conflent and if fine food in a beautiful setting appeals to you then visit Auberge St. Paul. There between the walls of the medieval town and the old church you can dine in the shade of the beautiful plane trees.

If you have any information from your travels in Ireland or France that you would like to pass on please drop a line.
