TRALEE has been nominated to participate in the Ireland’s Best Kept Towns Competition for 2023. The town, which had another impressive result in this year’s Tidy Towns Competition, is an entrant in the Best Kept Large Urban Centre category.

Adjudication will take place during the month of May and the results will be announced at an awards ceremony in Dublin in June. The judging criteria is similar to what is used for the SuperValu Tidy Towns Competition each year.

Mayor of Tralee, Cllr Mikey Sheehy said: “The announcement that Tralee has been nominated to participate in Ireland’s Best Kept Towns Competition is a further endorsement of the incredible work being done locally and is recognition of what has been achieved in recent years.

‘There is fantastic collaboration between the local Tidy Towns team, staff of the Municipal District, local businesses and the community generally. This competition will be keenly contested with our town taking part in the Best Kept Large Urban Space category and I hope everyone will get behind the effort to secure yet another important honour for the town,’ said Cllr Sheehy.

Brendan O’Brien, Chair of Tralee Tidy Towns said:  “This is a really wonderful honour for our town. We need a big effort to be put in for this and for the National Tidy Towns Competition and we will require as many volunteers as possible to assist us, so we’re appealing to members of the business and residential community to keep an eye out and keep their own areas looking as well as possible. If you’d like to get involved, please don’t hesitate to contact us atinfo@traleetidytowns.ie”.
