Blas has firmly established itself as one of Ireland’s most prestigious accredited summer schools and this year’s virtual programme will be no different!

Blas will continue to provide access to the wisdom and tutelage of eminent figures of the Traditional world, which this year includes Dónal Lunny, Paddy Glackin, Tara Breen, Louise Mulcahy, Karan Casey, Jim Higgins, Tadhg Ó Meachair, and Liam Scanlon, to name but a few.

In addition to masterclasses, the programme includes Irish language classes, lectures, and public lunchtime and evening concerts. The new virtual programme will feature a one week intensive with an optional second academic week for students seeking university accreditation.
