In reply, Council management said they are very supportive of holding the event but are guided by the “Roadmap for Reopening Society and Business” and the prevailing advice of the public health authorities.

Mayor of Tralee, Cllr Terry O’Brien, said he had spoken to the people at Birds Amusements and they said they would come to Tralee in late August, if public health guidelines permit them to do so.
