Welcome to a multiplatform, immersive experience, a first for Irish broadcasting
Date Posted: October 19, 2018
Did you know Derry City plays host to Europe’s biggest Halloween Festival and this year for the first time you can share in the festivities – with a multi-platform experience like no other. Samhain Live will be live on TG4, BBC Two Northern Ireland and BBC Radio Ulster on Oíche Shamhna, Wednesday 31st October 2018 at 9.30pm.
Double-IFTA Award winning Gifted Empire Productions (Awards for ‘Best Live Event’ for FleadhTV in 2015 and TG4XX Beo in 2018), had this idea for an extraordinary live music TV show that will merge all media. Samhain Live received funding support from Northern Ireland Screen’s Irish Language Broadcast Fund.
Presented by comedian and Derry girl, Diona Doherty, and local musician J.J. Ó Dochartaigh, Samhain Live will transport you between worlds with live music, chat, behind the scenes, TV, Radio and social media all broadcasting content from this world …and the other world! With the help of musical maestro Jerry Fish – what better person to mischievously break down the walls between worlds – Samhain Live is bringing you the very best of Irish music from our custom-built stages in Derry City with performances from Le Galaxie, Saint Sister, Declan O’Rourke, Wyvern Lingo, Gavin James, Roe, Wood Burning Savages and of course Jerry himself…
This is multi-channel and multi-platform broadcasting. Live on two television stations plus broadcasting live on radio and social media – Samhain Live is the ultimate immersive experience where the lines are blurred between the worlds of the living and the dead for just one night of the year and we are there to capture it all…like you’ve never seen before.

TG4 – 9.30pm to 11.00pm
