THE Killarney Festival of Music & Food has announced that it will relocate from Killarney House Demesne to Killarney Racecourse.

In a statement released this morning, the organisers do not give any reason why the festival has been relocated, but thanked the Department of Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht for working with them to bring the festival to Killarney and to Kerry County Council for working with them and granting the festival licence.

Killarney Racecourse is just 10 minutes’ walk from the centre of Killarney town (on Ross Road).

“It has an excellent infrastructure with first class facilities including bars, hospitality areas, and flushing loos which are a bonus at a festival and Killarney National Park will provide an unrivalled backdrop!” according to the statement.

Killarney Chamber President Kate O’Leary said:  “We are delighted that the relocation of the festival was so seamless, Killarney racecourse is an exceptional location and will showcase Killarney at its best. Killarney is very fortunate to have so many suitable locations for all kinds of events.  We are looking forward to a wonderful weekend of stellar entertainment and hope that everyone enjoys Killarney.”

The family friendly weekend festival has an eclectic line-up of music, comedy and Ireland’s top chefs performing across seven different stages.

Acts performing include Duran Duran, Texas, The Stunning, Burt Bacharach and many more.
