KERRY is in jubilant form this morning after the Kerry Minors’ fantastic four-in-a-row success in Croke Park yesterday. And there will be homecomings on the double for the victorious team this evening. First of all the talented players and management will be feted in Fitzgerald Stadium at 5.30pm and afterwards, Fossa GAA Club, home club of captain David Clifford, will host a homecoming at Gortroe at 7pm.

In an effort to alleviate the expected large volumes of traffic, Fossa GAA Club will provide a complimentary bus service for supporters from both the Killarney and Killorglin sides of the ground.

From 6pm a bus service will run from the Aras Padraig Car Park and the High Street Car Park at the top of the town. Similarly, on the western side a bus service will commence from Fossa School/Church and pick up at the Golden Nugget. These will run on a continuous loop from 6pm. They will run in a similar fashion after the event.

Supporters are asked to avail of this facility to avoid traffic congestion. In addition, supporters are asked to arrive early to enjoy the festivities. An Garda Síochána, the Garda Traffic Corps and stewards will be on hand to assist traffic.

Killarney-based musician Shane Doolan will release his latest single, ‘SPACEMAN’, this Friday, December 19.

The new track is described as an atmospheric release exploring themes of ambition, isolation, and the desire to escape everyday limits. The single showcases Doolan’s evolving sound, combining emotional storytelling with cinematic production.
The release follows a significant year for the young artist. Earlier in 2024, Doolan headlined his first live show at The Anam Centre in Killarney. The event was a major local success, raising over €1,055 for Movember, the men’s health charity.
Doolan, who first gained local attention after his band won the Battle of the Bands at the Anam Centre, has cited influences such as Walking on Cars, Bon Iver, and Kodaline. Following his September debut, “The Ruins,” and his second single, “After The Bells,” he is currently working toward a debut EP set for release in January 2026.
‘SPACEMA’ will be available on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and all major streaming platforms from this Friday.
