Ring in the New Year with TG4

Join Dáithí Ó Sé and Doireann Ní Ghlacáin to ring in the New Year on TG4 with the finest of Ireland’s musicians and  singers from the Mills Inn in Baile Bhúirne in Co. Cork where there will be a full house with John Spillane,  Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh, David Geaney, The Raw Bar Collective and many more. Áine Ní Bhreisleáin will join in with the craic from the Pipers Corner in Dublin with Daoiri Farrell and Sibéal Ní Chasaide and friends.  And Máirtín O’Connor, Cathal Hayden and Seán Óg Graham will be with us from the Crane in Galway along with Pádraig Jack and the Kane Sisters with John Blake hosted by Máire Treasa Ní Dubhghaill.

Buíonn Píobairí Bhéal Átha an Ghoarthaidh open the show with their powerful presence and later on in the show we meet the men’s football team from the same area who were winners of Comórtas Peile na Gaeltachta for the first time in 2022.

Inside, the Mills is hopping! 5 time world champion Irish dancer, David Geaney, also know as the Dingle Dancer, is in flying form as are Conall Ó Gráda, Com Murphy, Nell Ní Chróinín and the rest of the fantastic Raw Bar Collective. You couldn’t come to Baile Bhúirne without having Cór Chúil Aodha on bord and they join us with the ever popular Mo Ghile Mear.

Coming from pubs well known for their support for traditional music year in, year out, Fáilte 2023 is delighted to bring some of the best of music and song from these well-loved venues.

Áine Ní Bhreisleáin hosts the evening in the musical hotspot, The Pipers Corner where she has the craic on New Year’s Eve with young Dublin musicians Siún Ní Ghlacáin, Méabh Mullihan and Libby & Ruth McCrohan in the capital. She is also joined by the powerful Daoirí Farrell who is in fine voice for the evening. Sibéal Ní Chasaide is stunning as always, accompanied by Mike Nielsen.

From the Crane Bar in Galway we hear the sweetest of fiddle music from Liz and Yvonne Keane accompanied by John Blake. Later Máirtín O’Connor and Cathal Hayden lift the roof with some of their most popular and intricate numbers. Arann island singer Padraic Jack brings a great year for him to and end with a beautiful rendition of his hit Déanamh Gaineamh (Making Sand), as Gaeilge, for the first time.

Fáilte ’23 has the best for entertainment for eveyone so join us on TG4, this New Year’s Eve at 23:30.

Máire Treasa Ní Dhubhghaill hosts a great night of music from the Crane in Galway for NYE 2022, on TG4, with Máirtín O’Connor, Cathal Hayden and Seán Óg Graham.
