THERE was a massive crowd on Denny Street last night for the annual New Year’s Eve fireworks display.

Crowds started gathering before 7pm for the show and Andrew Morrissey of Radio Kerry was getting the crowd warmed up playing pop music to the masses.

Then at around 7.25pm, the fireworks started and lasted nearly ten minutes. It was a really nice time for families to celebrate, while many revellers gathered at the Croppy Boy statue later for the Countdown Clock at midnight. Scroll down for photos…
