The annual Fèis will take place 8th, 9th & 10^th February 2019 in Bunessan Hall, Mull, and other satellite destinations around the village offering two full days of music, Gaelic song, and sport for children aged 8-18 in the main Fèis, music and games activities in the Fèis Bheag and a Cròileagan (nursery) for children aged 3-4.The Fèis are also preparing a busy weekend of social events including a Tutor Cèilidh at the Argyll Arms Hotel from 8:30pm on the Friday night and the annual Fèis Dance at Bunessan Hall from 8pm the following evening.
