Anyone have any idea of the timings and dates of these events. The official programme seems tells you about who is appearing but not when...
-
As far as I know Phil it is evenings for the performances - I am going to be in Fethiye tonight and will see if I can find out what time things kick off but we were very busy from about 6pm last night with people leaving about 8 ish to go over to the festivities so that may be an indication of timings.
There is also a photography exhibition and stalls all around the square with a massive tent selling I believe, books!
I don't know if there are things happening in the day but again I will try and find out.

Cheers!..

thank you so much for the info Nichola, we had the most amazing evening's entertainment, could not have seen better if we had queued for tickets and spent a fortune. The Travellers from Arizona were especially magical. Would advise one and all to head down to Fethiye square and give themselves a treat. Others were excellent too. Well done Fethiye for arranging this spectacular event.

This guy from Arizona was absolutely brilliant; it almost made me understand why some people become groupies ;) There is a video clip on the Calis Beach Forum Facebook group of this band.
According to Jane Akatay all performers are doing a slot on Tuesday night (last night allegedly) and I would highly recommend that people make their way down to the square to check it out.

Steady on there Nici... He was very good though.
What a diverse collection of Music.
Loved the whole show, The 2 Spanish Guitar players at the end were very good as well.
Can't wait to see what's on the rest of the week.

Just two more nights of music Barry - I've had a look a the programme and tomorrow (Tuesday) is the last night for the music concerts; starting at 8.30pm/20.30hrs.
I had a little chat with the fiddler guy and he is definitely playing again this week so must be tomorrow because he said he isn't playing tonight; although this is Turkey and anything is possible.
