Every summer in the third week of July, Drumshanbo plays host to the award winning Joe Mooney Summer School. 

This is a week long traditional festival of music, song and dance named after the man who did so much to promote the cause of Leitrim and his beloved town.

In addition to the classes and workshops there are recitals, ceilithe, lectures, and open air music events.

The impromptu music sessions, the natural beauty of the Drumshanbo area and the traditional ‘ceád míle fáilte’ hospitality of County Leitrim provide an unforgettable week for all those who participate in the classes and also for those who just visit the town to be part of the experience!

Why not make Hamill’s Bed Breakfast your base and explore the area as well as sample some of the fun and craic of the Summer School?
