COLLIS Sandes House was awash with food, art, music and fashion on Saturday for the first Bluebell Markets event.

There were 25 stands set up with everything from paintings, jewellery, cakes, clothing and much more on display. There was an entry fee of just €1 and those present enjoyed some great rock music from local musicians and an outdoor drumming display watched by families enjoying a picnic.

“It’s been really successful,” said one of the organisers, Tricia O’Connor. “We’ve had people coming all day and traders are making a good bit of money. The public are really enjoying it,” said Tricia.

Is there the possibility of this being a regular thing?

“Today was our first one but we’ll see how it goes because today was really good. We’ll sit down and plan our next move,” said Tricia.
