Killarney Summerfest 2008 will take place between July 10th and July 20th.

Killarney Summerfest 2008 is bursting with an eclectic range of activities to appeal to all ages and tastes.  Killarney is internationally recognised as a place of incredible beauty surrounded by a landscape of majestic mountains, lakes and woodlands and in 2007 alone was awarded three prestigious accolades including Irelands Best Kept Town, Irelands tidiest large town and the Entente Florale Gold Medal.  Against this background you can enjoy fantastic days and nights experiencing events such as Outdoor Theatre, Hot Air Ballooning, Outdoor Concerts, Art exhibitions and a packed programme of childrens events.

Festival Program

There are currently no concerts announced for this years festival, but the organisers have already applied for planning permission/licence for outdoor concerts in Fitzgeralds stadium, so fingers crossed.

Marks and Spencer is adverstising for positions for its Killarney store which is due to open this May. The retailer is looking for section Managers and customer advisors. Last Month Marks and Spencer announced its plans for Killarney after months of speculation. The decision was cemented when An Bord Pleanala turned down an appeal by Marks and Spencer to locate at Manor West Retail Park in Tralee. That decision concluded a long and controversial wrangle between the retailer and Tralee Town Council. Last April, Tralee Town Councillors voted by a majority of nine to three to turn down Marks and Spencer’s application for a material contravention which would have allowed it to locate at Manor West Retail Park.

The listing means that aircraft operators including helicopters, are requested to avoid the site where possible. Low flying aircraft are particularly targetted because of noise and other environmental reasons. The National Park will not become a no fly zone, but will be listed alongside the prohibited zones in the Internationally recognised pilots handbook.
