Unison Festival is back, this Autumn. One of Fingal's most vibrant music festivals will take place on Saturday 14th of September at Bremore Castle in Balbriggan and Sunday 15th of September at Millennium Park in Blanchardstown.
Labhair RTÉ.ie/Gaeilge le Claudine Murray ó lucht trádála Temple Bar, TASCQ, faoi na himeachtaí a bheidh le blaiseadh mar chuid den fhéile i mbliana.
"This is our second year of Unison and we we run it in partnership with Fingal County Council and it takes place in Balbriggan and Blanchardstown and it's going to be on Saturday 14th of September in Bremore Castle in Balbriggan, which is a beautiful historic site. You've got the castle in the backdrop and you've got the stage and you've got markets and live music. It's a lovely place."
"Agus ansin beimid sa Millennium Park ar an Domhnach 15 Meán Fómhair i mBaile Bhlainséir. Mar sin féile spraoi clainne lae atá saor in aisce atá ann agus breathanaímid air mar lá ag deireadh an tSamhraidh sular gá do dhaoine díriú ar an mheoin filleadh-chun-scoile. Seans atá ann roinnt saoirse agus sult a thabhairt thar an deireadh seachtaine sula dtagann na laethannta dorcha. Anuraidh ma féile Shamhraidh a bhí ann, i mbliana táimid ag druidim i dtreo an Fhómhair."
Mar sin an uair seo cén saghas bídh agus ceoil ar bheidh le blaiseadh?
"What we wanted to reflect was the diverse audiences that are in Blanchardstown and Balbriggan and appeal to young and old. So we've got family favourites like Ukulele Tuesday, who are brilliant. There's 14 of them all singing hits from Taylor Swift to Talking Heads on Ukulele. They're great fun and people can bring their ukuleles and join in."
"Beidh an Balbriggan Gospel Choir ann, mar is deas roinnt de mhuintir na háite a bheith páirteach. Beidh Spring Break linn, saghas super group a chasann 'bangers' ó na 80daí agus na 90daí. Beidh Pop Rocks linn freisin dos na dads, bfhéidir, roinnt glam rock, agus claisicigh anamcheoil Motown, agus beidh spórt ann leo siúd."
In addition to the music and dance performances, Unison Festival will feature a vibrant food and craft market, offering an array of food and unique crafts for festivalgoers to explore and enjoy.
Tosnóidh imeachtaí gach lá ag 12 san iarnóin agus leanfaidh go dtína 6 a chlog. Ní gá aon ticéid a chur in áireamh agus moltar do dhaoine iompar phoiblí a úsáid le taisteal ann. É sin ráite, tá fáilte roimh mhadraí mar sin má tá an madra ag teacht, seans go mbeidh ort taisteal sa charr - é sin nó dul ar rothar agus an madra i mála!
