Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann 2009 takes place from 16^th August 2009 to 23^rd August 2009 and requires hundreds of beds and self catering accommodation to cater for the huge demand for accommodation during this massive cultural event.

There is a new dedicated website, www.fleadhaccommodation.com and it allows home owners to add their accommodation while visitors can search for available rooms and houses around Tullamore during the 2009 Fleadh Cheoil.

Self catering accommodation is in huge demand amongst Fleadh goers attending the August event and Fleadh organisers are calling on people to consider the good dividends that offering accommodation will pay.

Applications can be submitted through the new website as well as searching for Fleadh approved accommodation.

The Fleadh is currently accepting offers of rooms and houses in and around Tullamore during the 2009 event. There is a huge demand for both B&B and self catering for the August event and the organisers are asking people to consider either providing B&B or self catering for the forthcoming event.

"We are urging people in Tullamore and its environs to come forward with offers of accommodation for the August event. We are very thankful to everyone who has accommodated people over the past two years and without their support, we would not be able to host this event.

“However, like every year, we are always looking for more people to come forward as the numbers attending the event grows ever year," explained Attracta Brady, Chairperson of the 2009 organising committee.

"To accommodate the thousands of performers and visitor, houses and rooms are required from both the commercial and private sector for a number of durations and in some cases people could earn a month’s rent for the week," she stressed.

"We have had phenomenal support over the past two years and we are hoping that people will continue to show their support of this fantastic event once again in 2009. We would urge people to contact either our accommodations office or through our new dedicated website,” Attracta added.
