Canopy being sought for park performance area as councillors vote to name it after local music legend

This week, members of Letterkenny Milford Municipal District voted to name the performance area after the late Ted Ponsonby, one of Donegal’s foremost musicians, who passed away last year.

When to comes to naming the facility, he says there’s no better person than Ted Ponsonby to celebrate the town’s musical and artistic heritage………
