Aniar TV has announced that it is working with TG4 and Temple Bar Company, to produce a new 6-part series of traditional music during TradFest 2018, which is due to run for a week at the end of January in the heart of Dublin City.

TradFest has been running for over 10 years now and it platforms Irish traditional music in a week-long festival in the heart of the Irish capital city annually. The newly formed television production company Aniar TV is looking forward to showcasing some of the best musicians and singers to TG4’s loyal music following with this brand-new series – ‘Tradfest ar TG4’
