A nationalist festival which was previously planned for the Mayflower Community Centre in Drumshanbo and later pulled, has announced its latest event.

The 'Mise Éire' festival was due to be held in the county Leitrim town in late August.

However, despite over 400 tickets being sold for the event, hundreds signed a petition calling for its cancellation.

It's latest event, Samhain Sessions, which has been described as a day of craic, ceol and caint, which will "explore our ancient folklore and some of the horrors facing modern Ireland."

The event will take place at The Ivy Tower Hotel in Castlebar on Saturday.
