Wearing o' the green would be appropriate for attending the
Great Lakes Irish Music Festival held at Fifth Third Ball Park,
this Saturday August 22, 2009 11:00 am - 9:20 pm.
Gates open at 11:00 am and the first entertainment hits the
stage at noon.
Of course there will be Irish food available for purchase, bangers
and beer, for starters, plus other delectable Irish delights.
The musical entertainment will be performed by international acts:
Quinn's School of Irish Dance, Stephen's Green, The Elders,
Brendan Nolan and the Screaming Orphans. Michigan's Fenian's
Players will once again take the stage to regale the crowd with
ballads and the spoken word.
There will also be Irish markets and workshops devoted to Irish music,
history and it's language that will be available for participants. A
Children's Area will be provided by the Grand Rapids Children's Museum
from 12:00pm-4pm for the wee ones entertainment.
An added attraction at Fifth Third Ballpark this year is Art in the Park,
an non-juried art fair running from noon until 6 pm, where you can buy
artwork to take home.
Admission for this one day event is $12 for adults, children 3-12 $1, and
those babes under 3 get free admission. Parking is $5 per car, $10 for
buses and RVs.
