Pipes In Full Tune For “Poignant” Pat Broderick Memorial Tionól 2025

The soaring tones of the uilleann pipes will fill the streets of Ennis this weekend for what promises to be an especially poignant edition of a well-loved festival.

The 2025 Pat Broderick Memorial Tionól, which is an off-shoot of the Piping Heaven Piping Hell weekly uilleann piping session, began on Friday afternoon and runs until tonight.

Along with an extensive session trail featuring world-renowned pipers, the programme includes a Pipe Band Tattoo at 1:30pm today and as well as a concert in Lucas’s Bar at 7pm.

This year’s festival is the first without the legendary Cyril O’Donoghue who was a key part of the event, but festival organiser Blackie O’Connell suspects he won’t be far away.
