Since 2005, Clare County Arts Office, has produced the Riches of Clare free lunchtime concert series featuring  traditional music, primarily, from County Clare throughout the summer months. 

Now in it's 15th year, the 2019 series promises to be as entertaining as ever, featuring many of the musicians who have performed in concerts over the years and welcoming new talented musicians from County Clare and beyond.

​

Our first concert of the season  takes place during the Kilfenora Music Festival in April. Concerts take place every day of the Fleadh Nua and every day during Fleadh Cheoil na Mumhan. From the end of May to the end of  of July concerts take place every Wednesday in The Sanctuary, Queens Hotel, Abbey Street, Ennis, Co. Clare (with the exception of the week of the Willie Clancy Summer School) Our last concert of the year takes place during the Feakle Music Festival.
