Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann will get under way in Belfast for the first time in the event's history this afternoon.

This August, the streets of Belfast will come alive with the sound of fiddles, flutes and céilí bands as Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann sets up in the city for the very first time in its history. For members of the Irish diaspora who cannot make the trip home, TG4 is bringing the festival straight to screens.
