When we decided to organize a fundraiser for the Maritime Festival, the first person we contacted to lend support was the great, Johnny Collins. Johnny has performed at almost every edition of the Cobh Maritime Song Festival with his long time singing partner Jimmy Mageean. Johnny, in his never ending generosity immediately agreed to help us and come to Cobh for the weekend.Unfortunately, Johnny Collins passed away a few weeks later in Gdansk Poland where he was performing for their Tall Ships Concert with Jimmy Mageean and Pat Sheridan. It was a great shock to us all and to the thousands of people who have been touched by Johnny’s performances and spirit over the years.We dedicate the Firday Night concert to the memory of our dear friend, Johnny Collins. The evening will feature performances by Jimmy Mageean with Pat Sheridan, Chris Lock and Ian Tupling which make up Loctup together and Cobh’s own musical group KalamazooSpecial thanks to Bella Vista Hotel, The Watersedge Hotel, The Roaring Donkey, The High Chaparral and Ryan’s pub for their support
