There’s much to see and do. For the young ones, there’s face-painting and pony rides. In the pubs, there are traditional music sessions; and for the die-hard shoppers, there’s everything from jewellery, clothes, music and bedding to tools, fruit and carpets on offer.
The Top Line Dancers will be performing at Ballycastle sea front from 2pm to 5pm during both days of the Lammas Fair in Ballycastle to raise funds for the NICLT.
