A charity bake sale hosted by Killarney for Palestine was deemed a major success, with the event receiving an extra boost from the appearance of Moglaí Bap of the Belfast rap group Kneecap.

Moglaí Bap, who was in town for Kneecap’s two sold-out concerts at the Gleneagle Arena last Friday and Saturday, led a promotional walk that concluded at the bake sale.
The coffee morning and bake sale took place in the lounge and interior kitchen of the Blacksheep Hostel on New Street on Saturday. It was extended by an hour, running until 2:30 pm, to accommodate the arrival of the walk, which reached the hostel at approximately 1:50 pm. Kneecap is known to organise similar community runs or walks in every town and city where they perform.
Susan Larkin and Lisa O’Sullivan of Killarney for Palestine confirmed the success of the fundraiser. They noted that the appearance of Moglaí Bap “added an extra element of excitement to what was already a wonderful event”.
