Michigan Irish Music Festival organizers claim success, looking toward 2011 | MLive.com

"MUSKEGON — Organizers said last weekend’s Michigan Irish Music Festival was a success, and they are already choosing bands for next year.
Festival President Chris Zahrt said she believes attendance was up slightly from last year, with 15,000 visitors coming to Heritage Landing from Friday to Sunday.
“We had a great turnout,” she said. “We had a full house for Mass Sunday morning — standing room only.”
Last year, about 14,000 people attended, a 40 percent increase from 2008.
Zahrt said vendors reported healthy sales this year, but there was no repeat of last year’s troubles when sellers ran out of most Irish foods by Sunday."
