Photos… Return to Camden Town Festival 2016

THE 18TH Return to Camden Town festival which ran from 25th - 31st October was a resounding success, featuring the best of traditional Irish music, song and dance with concerts, sessions, album launches, ceilis and workshops taking place in and around the Camden area.

The Irish Post went along to the London Irish Centre on Sunday to find the famous North London venue alive with the sound of traditional Irish music.

The afternoon ceili with the Tulla Ceili Band was held in memory of Marion Savage, one of the founders of the Return to Camden Town festival, who passed away last November.
