Fitzgerald Stadium will host an inter-county football final for the first time since July 2021.

On Saturday, Kerry face Cork in the McGrath Cup final – a repeat of last year’s Munster Final where the Green and Gold ran out convincing winners.

In line with current crowd gathering restrictions the game is limited to 5,000 fans and all available tickets have been sold.

“We, like everybody else, are looking forward to getting back to normal,” the stadium’s PRO Tatyana McGough told the Killarney Advertiser.

“Our advice for patrons is to come early to avoid queues. We would ask patrons to observe COVID-19 protocols and wear masks. We would ask patrons to respect resident's property and parking. Please do not block gates or park on footpaths.”

Throw in for the big game is set for 2pm. Killarney Gardai will be monitoring traffic and parking. Tickets are not available at the venue and those without tickets are advised not to travel.

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.
