W
WIZARDS will be touching down in Kenmare Place on August 18 so let’s hope there’s plenty of parking spaces for their Quidditch broomsticks! Aunty Nellie’s Sweet Shop is hosting a special Harry Potter-themed event on the evening, from 7pm to 9pm.
A hamper full of sweet treats, a book and a surprise, inspired by JK Rowling’s best-selling novels, will be up for grabs for the best-dressed costume. “We will also be serving homemade butter beer n the night to everyone,” said PJ O’Sullivan of Aunty Nellie’s.
As well as facepainting, you will also get the chance to enter a raffle. “I have secured a fantastic prize of a signed picture and certificate of authenticity of actor Helen McCrory which I will raffle off on the night,” said PJ. “Staff, including myself, will be dressed up Harry Potter style, and music from the Harry Potter movies will be playing instore. There will also be a Harry Potter-themed cake which will be cut and served on the night. All in all, two hours of fun, treats and magic are promised.”
This month is a sweet one indeed at Aunty Nellie’s with Monday designated Minion Day, with Kevin the Minion instore from 1pm to 4pm. Tuesday is Lucky Bag Day, with top prizes hidden in the Aunty Nellie’s lucky bags. Chocoholics are out in force on Wednesdays, which is Chocolate Fountain Day.
On Thursdays you will get the chance to win a luxury Katie’s Handmade Chocolate hamper. There will be free entry with every €5 purchase. And the store is hosting a Black Friday event also with 10% off all hampers/gift bags.

The Dóchas Drama Group will run a series of short plays at the Muckross Schoolhouse from December 5 to 7.
The group’s annual performance has been switched to the Muckross venue as its traditional base – the ballroom in the Killarney Avenue Hotel is being refurbished.
“If you are fed up with the incessant rain and constant bad news. Do you need a break? Are tired of listening to advice about your Christmas cake recipe? There is a perfect solution,” said the group’s Liz Ryan.
“We will present six short plays and some of the questions you may ask yourself are:
“Why is Jane suddenly so honest?
“What did happen on December 9. Will Tiffany be promoted? Will Mags eventually find love?
“Can lost love be re-kindled? What do grandparents get up to when they’re babysitting?
For answers to these questions and more, come along to Muckross Schoolhouse on December 5, 6 and 7.”
