Féile na mBláth Park Festival is fighting fit this June

This year’s Féile na mBláth at the Park Festival returns for its 19th year and a little later than usual due to the local area elections. The festival will run from Friday the 28th through to Sunday 30th of June in the Tralee Town Park.  Thanks to Kerry County Council – Tralee Municipal District, entry to the festival and its events will once again be 100% Free. 
The launch of the festival will take place on Friday following the election of the new Mayor of Tralee in the Chamber buildings. There will be an afternoon of music and food with a ‘Matilda the Musical Sing-a-long’ Cinema evening in the Kerry Group Marquee to celebrate the start of the School holidays.
The festival will be fighting fit this year with the welcome return of Déise Medieval with over thirty warriors and reenactors with their tented village which will be manned by experienced reenactors from around Ireland. All participants will dress, live and work in an authentic recreation of Viking life. Authentic cooking is done over the open fire and all the re-enactors are friendly (in the most part!) and very experienced in demonstrations and will present a number of Battles for Tralee during their stay in the Park. 
Saturday is the United Nationals ‘Tropics Day’ and a host of activities are planned for all the family to get involved with including the weekly Park Runs, Flower Demonstrations by Tralee Flower & Garden Club, Emergency Services, Juggling workshops, Drum Circles, Pipe Band Performances and a ‘Creatable Inflatable Parade’ rounding off the evening with an evening of Set and Céilí Dancing until late.
Sunday morning will kick off with the traditional morning Mass followed by Music Generation Kerry & Sempre Strings. The Festival will celebrate International Parliamentarism Day with a chance for the public to meet and chat with your newly elected Councillors in the Tralee LEA. Beidh ‘Pop Up Gaeltacht’ mar chuid d’Fhéile na Bhláth í mbliana. Buail isteach I gcóir comhrá nó cúpla focal (Fáilte roimh gah leibhéal). Local Performing Arts Group will showcase their talents, the Traditional Dog Show later in the afternoon and of course the centrepiece of Féile na mBláth is the Tralee Flower & Garden Club Competitions in the Flower Marquee with the Prizegiving later Sunday evening.
Daily visitors to the festival are being encouraged to Cycle, Park ‘N’ Charge along with being conscious to re-cycling & reuse when travelling to, from and while at the Festival. There will be the traditional Food and Craft Stalls as well as Art in the Park, Tralee Community Garden workshops & Meitheal, free entry to Kerry County Museum with a presentation of ‘The Last Prince’, Bouncy Castles, Small Kids Amusements and much more.
