It's crazy to think that legendary Irish music group Aslan have been around for 40 years - but it seems so, as the popular Irish band has just announced an anniversary tour.

The 'Crazy World' hitmakers will play in KIllarney next month to mark their 40 year anniversary.

Aslan will perform a headline concert at the Gleneagle INEC Arena on March 16 as part of their ‘40 YEARS’ 2022 Irish tour.

Tickets will go on sale this coming Monday (February 7) at 9am.

Aslan came together as a band in 1982, which means they are 40 years together in 2022 - an amazing achievement for any band.

Over the four decades hey have had numerous chart successes, toured the world, broken up, made up and given us some classic songs such as 'This Is'. Today, Aslan continue to entertain the masses in many of Ireland’s and the UKs premier venues.

Tickets cost from €42.05 including booking fees and are available now via Ticketmaster.ie.

Kerry TD Michael Cahill says he is pushing to ensure the Killarney Innovation Centre secures the funding it needs for its planned expansion.

Deputy Cahill raised the issue in a recent Parliamentary Question to Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment Peter Burke. The centre has applied to the Smart Regions Enterprise Innovation Scheme under Enterprise Ireland to support future projects.
Minister Burke told Deputy Cahill that the centre’s application will receive “appropriate consideration” and confirmed that Enterprise Ireland will assist the organisation in shaping proposals that match the aims of the scheme.
Deputy Cahill said the support would give the Killarney Innovation Centre “a first run to the ball” in identifying suitable projects that can attract national funding. He added that the centre has received strong Government backing for more than 30 years.
The Minister also noted that three other Kerry projects are progressing under the same national scheme, including a €1 million allocation for the AI Navigator Programme at the RDI Hub in Killorglin, which is designed to help small businesses adapt to artificial intelligence.

Focus Housing Association CLG, the housing arm of Focus Ireland,has submitted an application to Kerry County Council for amendments to its previously approved 67-unit residential development at Woodlands Industrial Estate, Killarney Bypass Road.

The original permission was granted under Kerry County Council reference 21/205.
The new application, maintains the total number of residential units at 67, but outlines several significant internal and external reconfigurations. The overall height and number of storeys for the development will remain unchanged from the scheme initially permitted.
The proposed modifications include a reconfiguration of the basement to incorporate water and attenuation tanks, a lift pit, and an ESB substation. Changes are also outlined for the ground floor, with modifications to the bicycle parking area, which will increase the total number of spaces to 136, and alterations to the bin area.
The plans detail a reduction in car parking spaces from the originally approved 80 down to 74, which will still include four accessible spaces. A substantial decrease is also proposed for the communal open space, which will drop from 719 square metres to 375 square metres due to the removal of a planned roof terrace.
Internal layouts and circulation routes on each floor will be altered, with the final unit mix proposed as 33 one-bedroom and 34 two-bedroom apartments. The changes will result in an increase in the total gross floor area of approximately 871.5 square metres.
Focus Housing Association is seeking permission for the temporary removal and subsequent rebuilding of an existing retaining wall adjacent to the N22 Bypass Road. The wall will be rebuilt to match its existing height and material finish.
