Fermoy Concert Band
Fermoy Concert Band is really looking forward to their visit to Cork's Marina Market, the best place to be for a bewildering choice of foods - and more!
One of Cork's oldest bands, they are also one of the best - playing at parades, matches, and concerts in Cork county for decades.
The band plays a big mashup of genres - classical, pop, rock, jazz, film scores, and traditional Irish, but as it's their first visit to the Marina Market, they will no doubt try to include musical references to food, and to Cork city itself; and prizes may be awarded to astute listeners who identify those references!
This great quality band prides itself above all on entertainment through great music, so bring all the family along for a fun afternoon!
