Then later tonight there will be a civic reception held in The Square at 9pm to officially welcome them, their families and supporters to Tralee. There will also be music performances followed by a reception at Kirby’s Brogue Inn.

The town is pretty much booked out for the week and everything is in place to ensure this will be the biggest and best festival in years. Keep up with all the fun over the next seven days here at TraleeToday.ie.
