Ar an 1 Bealtaine, seoladh Féile na Laoch go hoifigiúil le ceiliúradh lán le stair, cultúr, agus spiorad pobail. Thosaigh an fhéile leis an imeacht a raibh fonn mór ar dhaoine é a fheiceáil – oscailt an bhosca ar dúnadh é 7 mbliana ó shin, é lán le cuimhní ón bhféile dheireanach, nóiméad siombalach a cheangail an lá inniu le hoidhreacht Féile na Laoch.
Bhí cuimhní cinn agus teachtaireachtaí ón am atá thart sa chapsúl ama, ag tabhairt léargas croíúil ar bhrionglóidí agus ar chuimhní na rannpháirtithe ó na blianta roimhe seo. Bhailigh an lucht freastail le sceitimíní agus iad ag faire go cúramach ar an gcaoi ar nochtadh a chuid ábhair, ag tabhairt mothúchán leanúnachais agus oidhreachta roinnte.
Ina dhiaidh sin, thug paráid bheoga beocht do na sráideanna. Thaispeáin grúpaí áitiúla, ceoltóirí, damhsóirí agus páistí traidisiúin shaibhre agus tallann na háite. Bhí an pharáid lán le dathanna, ceol agus bród, agus rannpháirtithe d’aoisghrúpaí éagsúla ag teacht le chéile chun seoladh oifigiúil na féile a cheiliúradh.
Is ceiliúradh ar laochra áitiúla, ar oidhreacht agus ar spiorad buan an phobail í Féile na Laoch i gcónaí. Tá seoladh na bliana seo tar éis an stáitse a leagan síos do shraith d’imeachtaí spreagúla atá le teacht, agus tá cuireadh ag gach duine a bheith páirteach sa cheiliúradh leanúnach.
Fan ar an eolas le haghaidh nuashonruithe, imeachtaí atá ag teacht agus bealaí le páirt a ghlacadh i bhFéile na Laoch.
Féile na Laoch Officially Launches with Time Capsule Ceremony and Parade
On May 1st, Féile na Laoch officially launched in a celebration filled with history, culture, and community spirit. The festival began with the much-anticipated retrieval and opening of a time capsule, a symbolic moment that connected the present with the legacy of Féile na Laoch.
The time capsule, stored during a previous edition of the festival, contained mementos and messages from the past, offering a heartfelt glimpse into the hopes and memories of those who participated years ago. Attendees gathered with excitement as the capsule was carefully unearthed and its contents were revealed, bringing a sense of continuity and shared heritage.
Following the time capsule ceremony, a vibrant parade brought the streets to life. Local groups, musicians, dancers, and children showcased the rich traditions and talent of the community. The parade was a joyful display of colour, music, and pride, with participants of all ages coming together to mark the festival’s official launch.
Féile na Laoch has always been a celebration of local heroes, heritage, and the enduring spirit of the community. This year’s launch has set the stage for a series of exciting events to come, and everyone is invited to be part of the ongoing celebration.
Stay tuned for more updates, upcoming events, and ways to participate in Féile na Laoch.
