The main purpose of the event is to celebrate the World Monuments Fund

Gormley at that time.
Organizer Heather Adams said:
"The Hill of Tara is the most magical place in Ireland to celebrate the
summer solstice.
"This is a totally free festival, and all we ask is that people don't
drink alcohol and respect the site.
