As the official travel partners for the festival, Irish Ferries will assist organisers in attracting participants from overseas by providing transport to all of the acts travelling to Waterford from Britain and France.
On the Irish Sea, Irish Ferries operates up to 16 daily crossings between Dublin and Holyhead and Rosslare and Pembroke, whilst on its French routes, the Oscar Wilde cruise ferry sails from Rosslare to Cherbourg and Roscoff, and the Epsilon cruise ferry from Dublin to Cherbourg return at weekends.
Now in its 22nd year, the Spraoi Festival is expected to attract over 30,000 visitors to Ireland's oldest city, with three days of street entertainment and festivities, finishing with a Mediterranean style carnival through the city centre followed by fireworks launched from the River Suir.
