A big THANK YOU! to all the artists who made it to this year’s International Festival despite the weather, and to all the people who braved the elements and the travel conditions to attend. Wonderful, memorable performances made all the complications worthwhile!

Thanks also to QUB School of Arts, English and Languages, and to the BBC for partnering us again this year, and to the Arts Council of Northern Ireland for their continued support.
