The 2019 Puck Fair is just around the corner and taking centre stage and kicking off Ireland’s oldest festival in traditional style is the Horse Fair, which will now be a one-day event held on Saturday 10th August.

Evan’s Field, the site of the annual Horse Fair, will be open from 6am. All visitors and traders are being asked not to arrive until after this time.

With buyers, sellers and spectators expected to visit the famous fair in their droves, organisers are keen to emphasise the importance of adhering to the schedule, particularly in the interest of health and safety for all.

Aside from the Horse Fair, this year’s event is jam-packed with an array of live entertainment, street performers, dance and music workshops and much more.

It is all systems go in Killorglin, Co Kerry as the committee continue their preparations for the annual festival, which will take in the town from 10-12 August.
