The festival runs on Saturday from 11am to 9am and all activities including a free screening of children’s favourite Zootopia on sunset will be held at the school.

People are encouraged to dress up for the occasion, with prizes for best costume.

There will be more than 40 market stalls, food, drinks, arts and crafts, children’s rides and live entertainment throughout the day including Irish dancers, line dancers, performances from schools and dance schools, and popular local band Gasoline Halos.

Festival coordinator Carol Doherty said the event has gone from strength to strength each year, and that a crowd of about 1000 people is expected to attend.

Mrs Doherty said the festival will be a great day of entertainment for the whole family.

“All you need to bring with you are seats and blankets to sit on,” she said.
