The Russell Memorial Weekend is a traditional festival held in Doolin on the last full weekend in February each year. The festival began in 1995 as a remembrance ceremony to Micho Russell, the world-famous traditional musician, who died in 1994.
The Russell Memorial Weekend's aim is to host the best of traditional entertainment; to encourage musicians to revisit a source and recognise new talent.
