APPROXIMATELY 10,000 people are expected to flock to Kilconly for the five nights of the ‘Wild West Country Fest’, and signs promoting one of Ireland’s biggest country music festivals can be seen from Dunmore to Turloughmore, and from Corofin to Kilmaine.

The festival runs from Friday to Sunday (April 28-30) and Friday to Saturday (May 5, 6).

“There’s five nights of it. What this is worth to the local economy is massive,” said Paul Devaney, Chairman of the Kilconly Development Committee, which are organising the extravaganza.
