The glitz, glamour and party atmosphere synonymous with The Killarney Races Ladies Day continued late into the evening at The Brehon’s Ladies Day Après Party on Thursday.

Celebrity judges Una Healy, Jake Carter and Karen Byrne judged the Best Dressed categories and awarded the top prize of Best Dressed Lady to Mary Moynihan. Mary walked away with a Brown Thomas Voucher to the value of €500. The award for Best Hat went to Laura Dorgan and Jack Patrick Healy won Best Dressed Man.

After a busy day at the races, racegoers were whisked away to The Brehon by shuttle bus where they enjoyed a delicious selection of food and an evening of live entertainment with jazz duo Treble and Bass followed by The Stars.
