Information
2005 was an extra special year for Fèis Bharraigh, as it celebrated the 25th staging of the event. For the year, the Fèis reverted to it's original two week format, running from 15 - 30 July. Although this was hard work for the tutors and committee, the young people greatly benefited from this intense period of tuition. In addition to the daily programme, the evenings were filled with a range of cèilidhs, concerts and other fundraisers, plus special commemorative events including a re-union night, plus three nights of concerts in a specially erected marquee. This culminated in a Ceòl nam Fèis concert, where Fèis Bharraigh participants joined their colleagues from across Scotland in an unforgettable concert.
