Tullamore Tradfest is holding a special tribute concert.
Tributes will be paid to Ashling Murphy at a midlands festival this weekend.
Tullamore Tradfest is hosting a concert in honour of the Offaly school-teacher and trad music fanatic who tragically lost her life in January.
700 tickets were reserved for the memorial event, which will be live-streamed on Sunday.
Chairperson of the festival, Tommy Craven, says it wouldn't have been right to let the weekend go without paying their respects:
