TRALEE International Resource Centre (TIRC), Killarney Immigrant Support Centre (KASI) and the African community in Kerry (AFCOM) are celebrating Africa day with a big day of celebration in Tralee Town Park this Sunday.
The three groups are organising an African party for the entire county, on Sunday, May 26 which will bring together different African cultures and traditions and hopefully bring together international and local communities across Kerry.
Everyone, from young to the old, is invited to attend the fun family day out that will showcase a different culture and provide plenty of entertainment.
