Irish Festival 2014

Every Year they hold an Irish Festival in Dublin, Ohio during the first week-end in August. (not that that week-end has any significance in Irish history; it's just too cold on St. Patrick's Day to make any money at a festival held then)
It's one of the largest Irish Festivals held in the US in both attendance and size. There are 7 stages and there's something going on on each one every minute of every hour every day for three days. Everything from punk rock with bagpipes to traditional ballads to step dancing competitions. There's all types of wonderful Irish foods and drinks and the people are just wonderful.
There's even a re-enactment of a 12th century encampment of King Brian Baru. That's where this picture came from.
We go every year we can.
