Update on our September Festival at the Carrington
Pat Hayes has surgery booked and has had to withdraw from the festival.
Irene and Tom will perform in his place.
We wish Pat a speedy recovery.
On a personal note I have been diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer and start fortnightly Chemotherapy this Tuesday 2nd. August and my Chemotherapy may last for 26 weeks.
Therefore Tina and I will not be able to attend our Dances in Loughborough or our Festival in the Carrington Hotel in September.
However our family with Zbig and Pam will be at our festival to look after you and Tina and I will organise rooms, paperwork etc. from our office.
Zbig and Pam will also organise our dances in Loughborough and for this we are extremely grateful.
Should you have any queries re our festival I would appreciate it if you could contact me on mimf96@hotmail.com rather than by phone or text.
Many thanks and keep safe
James and Tina

MCKEEFRY IRISH MUSIC FESTIVAL
CARRINGTONHOUSE HOTEL BOURNEMOUTH
FRIDAY 16TH. - MONDAY 19TH. SEPTEMBER 2022
Our March Festival was a great success.
Following on from our November Festival in 2021 we realised that we had overbooked the number of guests and the steep stairs leading to the downstairs Ballroom were not convenient for many of our guests.
In March of this year we used the upstairs Ballroom for Dancing and all guests were able to eat in the Main Restaurant in three sittings.
We also allocated tables in advance with guests specifing where they would like their table to be and a table plan was posted in the Reception Area and outside the Ballroom .
We also restricted the number of guests to 180.
In November 2021 we had 280 guests.
Our guests felt the upstairs ballroom was more appealing and cosy
Overall our guests were very pleased with the changes and we left with numerous bookings with guests requesting the same room and table allocation.
The cost of the Festival is £250 as on the Flyer and not £260 as on the Booking Form.
The first 30 single rooms will not carry a supplement and thereafter there will be a single supplement of £15 per night per person.
Glen Flynn will not be appearing as his other two performances for that weekend have been cancelled.
Appearing will be
Barry Doyle Duo
Irene & Tom
Ally Harron & Marian Curry
Michael Coyne
Pat Jordan Duo
Mc Ginty
Sally Glennon
