My husband and I will be visiting Oregon during the festival (July 31-August 1). We saw it in one of the tourist info magazines and wondered if it would be worth a visit. I couldn’t find much info about it on the web. Can anyone enlighten me?
I did some searching on Eugene and Lughnasa (which is what it should be…I think "Lughnasdah must be a typo, because it doesn’t make sense in that form), and came up with several references to the play “Dances at Lughnasa”…not seeing anything about a festival, though.

Wonder if they let ya in free for spelling it right?

Actually, that is the closest. There was a typo in the book; it is Lughnasadh and I found some info from 2003:

Anyway, I figure no one around here has been or I probably would have heard about it by now. Maybe it’s a pretty small event. Might be fun, though.
Hi,
I REMEMBER that Fair now! The band I was in played there in 2002.
It promised this and that and it turned out REAL tiny. They had trouble
getting the sound system working; the stage was some planks
laid on the ground; it was freezing in the a.m.; then the wind came
up and almost blew our tent away. We didn’t sell many cd’s, as it
was so small, and we played for free!
Yes, I remember it now
