There were birthday celebrations for the four-star Brehon and Angsana Spa last weekend as the hotel held a special party to mark its 18th year.

Over 200 guests enjoyed cooking demonstrations and locally foraged goods created by Conor Spacey, an internationally awarded Chef who specialises in zero waste cooking and sustainability, followed by a Barbeque by Head Chef Chad Byrne.

Killarney Brewing Company partnered with The Brehon on the day to provide their popular drinks to visitors.

Guests were treated to 'Brehon18', a cocktail specially commissioned to mark the event. In addition, there was cake, face painting, balloon art and a special show from Kenny the Clown for the children who attended.

“We are humbled at the number of our loyal guests and patrons who attended our 18th birthday celebrations," General Manager, Sinead McCarthy, said.

"We are delighted to have been able to celebrate with a fantastic party for the local community, staff and management. Thank you to all of our guests for the incredible support over the past 18 years, here’s to many more to come.”
