We welcome all families on Monday evening, there will be lots to keep everyone entertained. We look forward to welcoming Cliona Hagan back to Ballinrobe Racecourse, following a very entertaining evening of singing and dancing last year. I would like to take the opportunity to wish Ballinrobe Festival well with their events running from 22nd – 30th July."
