‘Over St Patrick’s weekend, the Monmouth based folk group, Celtic Collectors, raised over £500 playing charity gigs at The George in St Briavels and The Royal Oak, Monmouth. Since forming just over 2 years ago, the band has raised the profile of Celtic music and approaching £30,000 for local charities’. They are looking forward to participating again at ‘Monstock’ on 25th July 2026 when several local bands will provide entertainment around the town’.
