The original Féile was a festival that ran for several years in the 1990s, primarily held at Semple Stadium - although Féile festivals were also held in Cork and Dublin in the mid-90s.
Initially a camping festival before becoming a one-day event for its final year in 1997, the festival attracted a range of local and international stars over its lifespan.
Curated and hosted by Newstalk's own Tom Dunne, the line-up of Féile Classical draws heavily on the first year's line-up
