The program opened with a performance of The Parting Glass by the Island of Ireland Peace Choir and also included a performance of Patrick Cassidy's The Proclamation by violin soloist Patricia Treacy. The formal State ceremonial event culminated with a wreath-laying ceremony followed by a minute of silent reflection, a piper's lament, the raising of the National Flag and the National Anthem.
