The Ould Lammas Fair
The oldest fair in Ireland is held on the last Monday and Tuesday in August and has been held uninterrupted for over three centuries. It is famous for its 'Dulse and Yellowman', Dulse being dried seaweed from the local beaches and Yellowman a hard yellow candy. Stalls line the streets of the town and sell anything from livestock to souvenirs. Its origin is unclear but two theories stand out - a celebration from Sorley Boy McQuillan for his Nephew or originally it was a sheep market. The 'Lammas', which means 'Loaf Mass' is one of the highlights of the year.
