Extract from the Lisdoonvarna Travel Guides:
LISDOONVARNA
, nine miles south of Ballyvaughan and five miles inland from Doolin, is most notable for its month-long
matchmaking festival
held annually in September. The origins of the festival lie with the farmers who would come down after the harvest from the hills to spend their hard-earned cash and look for a wife in a festival of singing, dancing and drinking. It remains popular with a middle-aged crowd who come along for all manner of merry making, so if you want to be here in September, book your accommodation well ahead.
On the whole Lisdoonvarna is probably best enjoyed in spring and early sum...
