Speaking about the upcoming events, organiser Seamus Gallagher said: "I can honestly say the Shearwater has all the ingredients to make it the number one music venue in the country. I am looking forward to reacquainting my friendship with the many thousands of dancers I have met through the years including all my faithful friends from my involvement in the McWilliam Park Hotel in Claremorris."
