World Matchmaking Festival coming to Mayo

CASTLEBAR has been announced as the host for the World Matchmaking Festival this November.

Following a hugely successful debut in Bundoran last year, this highly anticipated 10-day and 10-night dancing event is set to bring significant financial benefits to Castlebar.

The festival will run from Friday, November 1, to Sunday, November 10, at Breaffy House Hotel & Spa Resort. Attendees can look forward to eight hours of social dancing daily, featuring top social dance bands.

The event aims to relive the golden era of Lisdoonvarna with dance-filled, fun-filled, and lively nights, celebrating the social dancing revolution that has recently taken the country by storm.

Last year's festival saw a large contingent of attendees from the UK, and with Castlebar's close proximity to Ireland West Airport, an even greater turnout is expected this year.

Additionally, the return rail service from Dublin, covering many stations throughout Leinster, offers an added convenience for festival-goers.

Promoters Showtours are offering attractive package deals for accommodation and dancing, ensuring an unforgettable experience for all attendees. Bookings can be made online at https://showtours.ie/ or by calling 0818 300 888.
