When you’re in Killarney, take an hour or so to see this standup show! The emcee gets the crowd laughing right from the start and the lineup of comedians keeps it going!! The night’s headliner Cornelius Patrick O’Sullivan is one of those comics where you wish you could hit pause just to catch your breath you are laughing so hard. Our stomachs hurt by the end of the night !

Helene and I were delighted to find this wonderful performance by two of Ireland’s finest musicians, Niamh Varian-Barry on vocals and fiddle, and Peter Staunton on the button accordion and piano. Their hour long history of Irish music was performed in an intimate room on the top floor of John Benny’s pub in Dingle, county Kerry. It is not to be missed.

If you are travelling in County Kerry and the Dingle peninsula, don't miss a live music night in Flaherty's! Fergus will sing Dingle Bay in a way you'll never forget and his fellow musicians make a great Irish traditional music experience. In summer, Flaherty's has a nice beer garden too.

This is a quirky bar / restaurant and a must visit if in the area. The staff here is what make this place great.. They are so friendly and helpful. We had dinner which was nice.. Burger and chips, did the job. We tried to return the next day but unfortunately they were out the door busy.. People queue to get in here... Book a table if there are a few of you. Great to see places busy during these crazy cover times. Hope to see you next year!
