17th annual Irish music festival canceled

There won’t be Irish music galore in Ocean Shores this year.

“It is with great sadness that we have to announce the cancellation of our 17th annual Celtic Music Feis,” organizers said in a statement Thursday. “There are just too many unknowns right now with the Covid-19 pandemic and we feel it’s best now to make this decision.

“We will be sending out an email to each ticket holder on what options are available for those that did not have event insurance,” said the statement.

“We of course will be planning for next year’s Feis and will reach out to you in the chance that Covid-19 becomes under control by the fall and we are able to do a POP UP FEIS,” state the event’s organizers.
