Join Internationally-acclaimed Irish singer and songwriter Don Mescall and the award-winning Mount Sion Choir live and open air at the foot of stunning Mahon Falls, deep in the Comeragh Mountains.

The Waterford city-based choir shot to fame for their cover version of the Lady Gaga hit ‘Shallow’ and were the opening act for Don Mescall in May, 2018. Don loved the choir’s version of his song, ‘Your Love Carries Me’ and together, they recorded the single for three cancer charities. They fundraised to travel to London to record the single and along the way, they met The Kingdom Choir, Vicky Phelan and Stephen Teap. ‘Your Love Carries Me’ is now a cancer anthem. Early bird tickets for this unmissable reunion are €15 early booking via Eventbrite or €20 on the night.
