    Hi all.

    Myself and my other half are heading to Sligo for 3 nights from the 27th of August so we are wondering is there anything on in the locality - markets, festivals, cultural events etc etc, over those dates?

    Yipeee!!... Another 'astroturfing' opportunity.

    (let's get it started)

    "I'm not connected with [insert business name] but I have heard that they are REALLY great, certainly much better than [insert competitors name]"... etc etc

    (hopefully I'm wrong)

    Keep an eye on the Sligo Events twitter as they post up to date events.

    http://twitter.com/sligoevents

    Loads to do such as

    Seatrails
    Surfing
    Stand Up Paddling

    and not to mention gorgeous countryside to take a spin around and plenty of lovely places to eat.

    I did a blog post of ideas that might be of help http://magnumlady.com/2014/08/02/10-things-to-do-in-sligo/

    If you are in Sligo for the 30th of August there is the Lough Gill 10k swim taking place, there's always a nice atmosphere at that
