🔥 Oíche Fhéile Eoin | St John's Eve 🔥
Tonight, across Mayo and throughout Ireland, communities mark the ancient tradition of St John's Eve with the lighting of bonfires.
For generations, these midsummer fires have brought neighbours together to celebrate the longest days of the year, share stories, music and laughter, and honour a tradition that remains an important part of our Irish heritage.
As darkness falls this evening, we're thinking of the many bonfires that will light up the Mayo countryside and the generations who have kept this wonderful tradition alive.
Wishing everyone a happy and safe St John's Eve. 🔥☘️
