Shiaght Laa 8th August 2024

Shiaght Laa

Thursday, 8 August 2024 - 27 minutes

Fiona McArdle hosts this edition of Shiaght Laa in which we hear of Manx representatives at two large festivals.

This week, Yr Eisteddfod Genedlaethol is taking place in Pontypridd, and Manx delegates Nicola Tooms and Matilda Watson were welcomed to the stage by the Archdderwydd.

Lorient in Brittany will again be abuzz with music, and from Monday 12th to Sunday 18th August, a large contingent of Manxies will be taking part in the city's huge Festival Interceltique. We hear about it from Grainney Sheard, her sister Ealee, Breeshey Kermode of Biosphere Isle of Man and Blue Badge guide Jacqueline Yates, who will all be there as part of a contingent of about 60 people from the Island, performing music, song and dance and promoting the Island's unique culture.
