Music at the Gate
With the resolve to bring more traditional Irish music to Drogheda and with the potential provided by the Fleadh coming to the town in 2018 and 2019, Darragh saw an opportunity to use the iconic Laurence’s gate to give musicians an open and friendly environment to build a new community and at the same time increase the accessibility of traditional Irish music to people of all ages in Drogheda.
