Among the guests will be past pupils of former winning teams as well as Fermanagh’s three All-Ireland All-star award winners Peter McGinnity, Martin McGrath and Barry Owens.
Members of the first ever winning MacRory team of 1973 will be there as well as members of the most recent winning team of 2012 who made history by being the first ever recipients of the newly commissioned MacRory Cup in 2012.
