A traditional Latin Mass will be celebrated by Bishop Eamonn Walsh in Tutty's Field from 6pm, with a full choir singing traditional hymns. A local art exhibition will offer interest until an historical re-enactment of the 'Flooding of the Lakes' at 7.45pm.
There will be entertainment from both Junior and Senior 'Music under the Mountains' bands on the main stage from 8.30pm.
Sheepdog trials will be held at 10.30am on the Sunday. Other events of the day include an official opening by Minister for Health Simon Harris TD, hand shearing and vintage machine shearing, a talk on violin-making, set dancing, Irish dancing, falconry and more.
