The Western Care Virtual Candlelight Evening, takes place again this year on Saturday, February 12 at 8pm.

The annual Western Care Candlelight Ball - a highly anticipated occasion every Valentine’s weekend - will be a virtual event once more this year, following on from the success of last year’s online event, which raised over €35,000 for children and adults with learning disabilities all over Mayo.

Mayo will see an influx of some 40,000 people this weekend with both the annual Croagh Patrick Pilgrimage and the Bonniconlon Show seeing thousands come to the county to take part in the events.

More than 500 Irish musicians, singers, and dancers are expected to take over the numerous venues in Ballina and its surrounding towns for the six day Mayo Manchester Tradfest. The week-long family friendly festival will feature a whole host of award winning performers involved in 10 key events and a further 60 fringe events, and is expected to attract some 50,000 visitors. The unique celebration featuring performers from Mayo and Manchester is launched on Friday July 29 with a special live two hour radio broadcast by Midwest Radio from Bar Square in Ballina. The free event will feature a host of VIPs and performers and runs from 6pm to 8pm.
