TRAVEL WITH CELTIC INVASION VACATIONS
Every year, I take a small group of Celtic music fans on the relaxing adventure of a lifetime. We don't see everything. Instead, we stay in one area. We get to know the region through its culture, history, and legends. You can join us with an auditory and visual adventure through podcasts and videos.
In 2023, we’re going on a Celtic Invasion of County Mayo in Ireland. We’re gonna explore the area and get to know Grace O’Malley, the Pirate Queen. Learn more about the invasion at http://celticinvasion.com/

Paul Crowley replied: “Hey Marc, In answer to your third question, I've been working on learning a trad tune, The Deer's March, on my lever harp. Slainte!”
Shel O'Toole replied: “I am usually working when listening to the podcasts as I work from home. The music keeps me motivated. I often play a podcast more than once during the week.
I celebrate my Celtic culture most Sundays and every second Thursday at local Irish sessions where I play bodhran, banjo or guitar. One of my own songs has become a session regular and is a firm favourite of the patrons at the pubs where we have our sessions.
Cheers Marc, PS I love the podcast.”
Mattie Dalton emailed: “This year, I will not be in the parade. My plan at this point, is to cook a fantastic meal and have all the kids and grandkids over to share and enjoy their heritage! I'd love to hear all your music or anything you put out. Love you kiddo!!”
Ben Doran emailed: “While listening to the podcast, I am either doing light chores or culling through emails. Never too far from the speaker, or the playlist; so I can highlight songs/artists to take a further/deeper listen to.
I am going to be playing three shows on St. Patrick's Day, two with Ar Ais Aris, and end the night with a great Irish songs and tunes concert for the Wild Hog in the Woods Folk Cooperative. Then, after all that: either a nap OR some Bailey's and Jameson, then a nap.
Circling back: rehearsing, rehearsing this “holiday” season. Learning some new tunes, polishing up some old ones. Enjoying the fellowship while playing!”
Teresa Finley of IrishFest Atlanta sent photos from the attendance at the Atlanta St Patrick's Day parade.
