The third Mannifest festival gets under way this evening (Friday), near Union Mills.
Distinctive Chai Wallah tents have returned to the Glen Lough site, for an event which will feature music from the likes of Frank Turner and Scott Matthews.
Other attractions include local music stages, dance tents, family craft areas and circus performances.
The first acts are due on stage at 6pm.
A giant statue of Mannanan by local artists is again watching over the festival area, but this year he has a female companion, as one of the event organisers Lenny Conroy explains:
