Irish music festival, Feis, is heading back to Liverpool this summer after wowing crowds with performances from Van Morrison and The Dubliners last year.

Feis celebrates Liverpool ’s unique Irish heritage - over 75% of Liverpool’s population is of Irish descent - with a whole host of entertainment.

Last year saw performances from Imelda May, The Dubliners and even a special show from Shane MacGowan, all set against the backdrop of Irish heritage, dance and culture.
