Residents of Killaloe and Ballina have a striking new landmark to enjoy as preparations continue for a popular festival held between the twin towns.
With preparations well underway for Resonance 2026, London artist David Speed has completed a Salmon of Knowledge mural on the shores of Lough Derg.
Resonance Lough Derg is a not-for-profit festival run by a small team of volunteers and supporters and is made possible thanks to Tipperary County Council, Clare County Council, Failte Ireland, Ireland’s Hidden Heartlands and the Lakeside Hotel.
It celebrates creative inspiration through high profile speakers and is set to involve comedy and film for the first time in February, with Economist David McWilliams also due to attend.
Resonance Chairperson Steve Coakley says they wanted to give something back.
