Activities include music concerts, céilithe (dances), dance workshops and street entertainment.[1]
The Fleadh Nua is organised by Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann.[3][4] It has expanded to be a nine-day event with events every day for all including Ciorcal Comhrá, Café music sessions, lunchtime concerts, Foinn Seisiún and evening sessions.[5]
