The competitions at this year's Fermanagh Fleadh, which took place at St. Tierney's Primary School, Rosslea on Saturday, June 10 and Sunday, June 11, saw great participation from the county's talented young Traditional musicians and singers. As they represented their local Comhaltas branches, each performer showed skill and flair.

Those who placed will now go on to compete at the Ulster Fleadh in Dromore, Co. Tyrone, from July 16 to 23.
