Music in Dublin parks, summer 2007

The Office of Public Works has launched its annual summer programme of music in St Stephen's Green, the Phoenix Park, and St Enda's, Rathfarnham. The Green's programme today features the Niall Toner Band, who are playing at the bandstand between 1.00 and 2.00 p.m. They will be playing in St Enda's on Sunday 17 June (3.00-5.00 p.m.); again in the Green on 27 July (1.00-2.00 p.m.); St Enda's again on 12 August (3.00-5.00 p.m.); and the Phoenix Park on 19 August (3.00-5.00 p.m.).
