Congratulations to The Mórrígan Collective on delivering a spectacular Samhain Procession in Roscommon Town on Friday evening! 👏

Visit Roscommon was proud to support this fantastic event and to help grow the procession year on year, further strengthening Roscommon’s position on the map as the true birthplace of Samhain.

A special well done to all the schoolchildren who created the lanterns and took part in the procession.

Well done also to Roscommon Town Team and, the Roscommon People whose support helped make the event such a success.

A fantastic celebration of our heritage, culture and community, showcasing everything that makes Roscommon so special. Congrats Orla and Daniel 👏
