    MANCHESTER, ENGLAND, December 19, 2008 /24-7PressRelease/ -- People seeking a true taste of traditional Irish festivities have a few weeks left until the annual Temple Bar Trad Festival of Irish Music and Culture begins.

From Wednesday January 28th until Sunday February 1st 2009, the Temple Bar cultural area on the south bank of the River Liffey in Dublin is set to come to life with a range of exciting concerts and feature workshops, musical performances, showcases and much more.

Over the course of the five-day extravaganza, many of the pubs and bars in the historic district - which is internationally renowned for its unique and vibrant atmosphere - will play host to musicians from around the country.

They will take part in trad and folk music sessions, which are completely free for people to enjoy. Other free events include street performances.

Initial acts confirmed for the 2009 event include some of Ireland's most accomplished instrumentalists - including Sean McKeon, Liam O Connor, Ciaran O Maonaigh and Aidan O'Donnell - as well as talent from overseas, including fluting maestro Michael McGoldrick.
