Few moments in Irish music history feel as personal and celebratory as the upcoming 60th Anniversary Concert of Margo O’Donnell, set to take place on October 10 at the beloved Mt. Errigal Hotel. This event is more than just a concert—it’s a heartfelt tribute to a career that has spanned six decades, shaped by dedication, resilience, and a voice that has comforted generations. Adding even more warmth to this milestone evening is the presence of Daniel O’Donnell, Margo’s younger brother and an internationally recognized star in his own right.
Margo O’Donnell, affectionately known simply as Margo, has been a cornerstone of Irish country and folk music since the early 1960s. Her unmistakable voice and heartfelt storytelling have earned her a loyal fanbase both at home and abroad.

Errigal Hotel in Letterkenny, County Donegal, adds a layer of intimacy and familiarity, grounding the evening in the same community that has supported Margo since her earliest days.
The concert will also feature a very special appearance by Daniel O’Donnell, who has always spoken openly about the influence his sister had on his own musical path.
