Arrane son Mannin competition and concert

11 Jan 2013


Come and listen to the competition entries for the song which will represent the Isle of Man in the Pan-Celtic Song Contest in Carlow, Ireland in April. There’ll also be extra entertainment from the entrants as well as from Manx choirs, Caarjyn Cooidjagh and Cliogaree Twoaie. Organised by Fiona McArdle, the event is completely free. Prize money for the winning song in Manx comes from the Manx Heritage Foundation and is £300 this year - definitely worth entering! If you’re thinking about writing a song for next year, it’s never too soon to get in touch - pop along to the concert and have a chat with Fiona, who can help you find a translator and assist with pronunciation if necessary.
