Mistletown festival in Dublin starts on December 4th
Dublin’s historic Fruit and Vegetable Market which closed last year after 127 years, will reopen once again for the Mistletown festival, starting from December 4.
The festival will offer artists’ performances, food stalls, a gifts and crafts village, but also a vintage funfair with a carousel dating back to the 1890s.
Lord Mayor of Dublin Alison Gilliland stated: “The festival will breathe life back into the city centre. In this case it also brings back into temporary use Dublin’s iconic Fruit and Veg Market, which is fantastic. The market will have something to offer for people of all ages and tastes and I look forward to seeing it come to life”.
Minister of State for Business and Retail Damien English added that the festival will provide “a much-needed boost” to small artisan food and craft businesses this winter., reports Echolive.ie
