Performers, at this stage you should have identified from the Festival Programme the times and venues you will be singing. Just to note that the length of each of your two performances in the nighttime venues is a max of 40 minutes in order to give you time to move to the next venue.
For those of you being collected at the various airports, we will be sending you an email in the next few days with detailed instructions..
Should the volcano in Iceland cause disruption to air travel there are numerous ferry crossings which will get you to Ireland by Hook or by Crooke, and get you home again. Should this occur we will arrange to pick you up and your departure to ferry ports. Please click the following link to download the full ASH PLAN
