IT was a miserable night outside, but that didn’t deter around 150 guests from attending a very special event at Ballyseedy Garden Centre on Saturday evening.

The ‘Under The Stars Valentine’s Banquet’ event saw guests enjoy a champagne reception followed by an amazing four course meal. There was also an after party in The Blasket Bar in town.

There were incredible prizes up for grabs in the raffle, including a week in a penthouse villa in Nerja, Spain, a €1,000 voucher for Adare Manor and much more.

It was all in aid of the the Irish Pilgrimage Trust,  a registered charity in Ireland. Every Easter they take a group of children with a variety of special needs to Lourdes for a week. The Trust receives no state/public funds and the Trust is totally reliant on fundraising and voluntary donations.

Guests really enjoyed the night and certainly looked stylish as our photos show…
