One Hundred Thousand Welcomes!

 

SADLY, The St. Petersburg International Folk Fair is postponed due to the 2 sweeping hurricanes in

Tampa Bay.

SPIFFS is in communication with the city and the

parks department to reset a new date for the fair.

 

We will keep everyone posted via this website and especially through our Suncoast Irish facebook page.

Keep in mind when we do finally have our Irish Village at the Folk Fair, we will be asking folks to help us out!
