THE clubs that are performing at the annual Young Farmers' Clubs of Ulster Arts Festival Gala evening were announced at the second Arts Festival performance that took place recently at Ballee High School, Ballymena.
Sponsored by the NFU Mutual Insurance Society Limited, the YFCU Annual Arts Festival took place last week on two nights at two venues. A total of 8 clubs took to the stage to perform and from these five were selected to go on to the YFCU Arts Festiv
al Gala event.
At each Arts Festival performance, the clubs were assessed by adjudicators Ross Anderson, David McClarty and Robin Hewitt. They were evaluated on content, presentation, technical competence, audience appeal and general effect. On Friday night Mr. David McClarty announced the names of the clubs who were awarded a Special Merit accolade for their routine and the chance to perform in the Millennium Forum.
Performing at the YFCU Arts Festival Gala Evening will be Garvagh YFC, Glarryford YFC, Kilraughts YFC, Kilrea YFC and Moneymore YFC and these clubs will tread the boards at a NEW venue for 2008 - the Millennium Forum in Londonderry on Saturday March 29th, 2008.
Tickets for the event are currently being snapped up and the YFCU is advising all those who wish to see members of their local club in action to book tickets as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.
Tickets for the Arts Festival Gala evening in the Millennium Forum cost just £10 and can be obtained by telephoning the YFCU Headquarters on 028 90 370713 and will be issued upon receipt of a cheque for the amount of tickets purchased.
