The Durrow Scarecrow Festival is now in its thirteenth year and this is the last time it will run as a nine-day event. The highlight of the festival is the All-Ireland Scarecrow Championships in which hundreds of scarecrows from the four corners of Ireland and even further afield compete to win a prize. The festival runs until Monday, August 5th, in Durrow, Co Laois.
