Ahead of next month's grand opening in Killarney and its Cahersiveen store in February, Aldi have planted 24,000 trees in Kerry this month.

The Aldi Kerry store staff teamed up with Green Belt and local landowner Gerry Christie to plant the trees across Cloonafinneela and Cappawee.

Aldi is the first retailer in Ireland to commit to planting one million native Irish woodland trees by 2025 in partnership with Green Belt. The native trees will create a wildlife corridor for native species and enhance biodiversity, while also removing more than 160,000 tonnes of carbon emissions over their 100-year life span.

Aldi’s new store in Killarney will be situated next door to the current store, which will close on Wednesday January 12 ahead of the new store opening on Thursday January 13. The Killarney store has undergone a rebuild, with the newly revamped store being powered by 100% green electricity. Aldi’s long awaited Cahersiveen store will open on Thursday February 17 and will be Aldi’s 150th store in Ireland and Aldi’s eight store in Kerry.

As 2026 begins, the Killarney Advertiser would like to wish all our readers a very happy new year and to remind the community that this newspaper belongs to you.

Founded in 1973 by the late Danny Casey and now published by his son Cormac, the Killarney Advertiser has always been a community newspaper in the truest sense. For more than five decades it has told the story of Killarney through the voices, events and achievements of the people who live and work here.
The paper is keen to hear from community organisations, schools, sports clubs, charities and voluntary groups, as well as from individuals with news to share. Fundraisers, events, launches, awards, milestone birthdays and wedding anniversaries all have a place in these pages.
Each week starts with a blank page, shaped by what matters locally. The message is simple: if it matters to the community, it matters to the Killarney Advertiser.
News and photos can be sent to sean@killarneyadvertiser.ie or news@killarneyadvertiser.ie. You tell us, and we will tell the wider community.
