Street Feast

‘Street Feast’ is coming to Kerry this June.

AN Irish local community initiative is looking for people to host their own ‘Street Feast’ as part of the State’s 1916 / 2016 Centenary Celebrations.

Over 850 Street Feast parties around the country have been registered to date, including two in Tralee.

The 7th Annual Street Feast Day will be held on Sunday, June 12 and in Kerry this year, Street Feast parties are taking place throughout the county, including in Killarney, Killorglin, Stradbally, Milltown and Tralee.  There is still time to book, get a free party pack and include your community in the special 2016 celebrations.

People can register their Street Feast online at www.streetfeast.ie where you will receive your free Party Pack (while stocks last), which will be posted direct to your home. This pack provides a handy guide to help make your feast a success, as well as posters, invitations, balloons, party hats and bunting to get the party started!

Street Feast is a not-for-profit, all-for-fun, do-it-yourself celebration.  The initiative invites an individual, or a group of neighbours, or a club, to host a lunch on their street, in a local park or in their front gardens – inviting other neighbours to come along and join them.

It is hoped that in some small way, a Street Feast, this all-inclusive initiative, encouraging active participation, will bring communities together and reduce isolation.

Everyone is encouraged to bring something along.  In partnership with the Centenary Programme, we are calling on people nationwide to come together at 12noon on Sunday, June 12 to enjoy a bite to eat with their neighbours for a simple and fun way of reconnecting with those that live near them.

This year, even more organisations have come on board to promote the community initiative – the local authorities throughout the country, An Post, Dublin City Council, Scouting Ireland, Irish Men’s Sheds Association, Irish Countrywoman’s Association, GIY Ireland, Volunteer Ireland, Foroige, The Tidy Towns and many more.   Any group wishing to join the party and support the initiative – please get in touch with Street Feast.
