The summer seisiún series is a simple concept, familar to the Irish tradition of rambling houses – a series of 7 events during July and August, hosted by a group in a convenient location, featuring the best of traditional Irish music, song, dancing and story-telling, with simple but welcoming hospitality.

Spink Comhaltas have hosted seisiúns since 2014 as part of Comhaltas nationwide Seisiún program at the Heritage House Museum – an old school house in the picturesque heritage town of Abbeyleix which is now home to, among other fascinating items, carpets from the same factory as those on the ill-fated Titanic.
