Killarney Valley Classic and Vintage Club will run its annual Christmas Charity Walk on December 28.

This year’s event will start from Killarney Racecourse as opposed to the traditional starting point at the Innisfallen Hotel in Fossa.

Organisers are concerned about crowd gathering rules in these COVID-19 times and the switch to the new venue will allow for outdoor registration.

This year’s walk will raise money for ADAPT Kerry Women’s Refuge in Tralee, and two routes are on offer.

“The walk by Ross Castle and the Coppermines will be around 4km to 5km in length,” explained one of the event’s organisers, Tom Leslie. “The longer walk of around 10km will go through Knockreer.”

Registration begins at 10am and the first walkers will depart around 12 noon.

A Killarney motor dealership has been recognised at national level after Dineen O’Donoghue Suzuki was named Aftersales Customer Experience Dealer of the Year at the 2025 Suzuki Ireland Dealer of the Year Awards.

The awards ceremony took place at Carton House in Maynooth, Co Kildare, where Suzuki Ireland honoured dealerships from across its 24-strong national network for performance and customer service over the past year.
The Killarney dealership received the accolade in recognition of its consistently high standards in customer care and aftersales service.
Suzuki Ireland Managing Director Takanori Suzuki praised the overall dealer network for its achievements, noting that 2025 delivered record results for the brand in Ireland, including a new market share high and more than 2,350 vehicles sold before year end.
He added that Suzuki dealers will play a key role in the brand’s plans for 2026, including the launch of the new fully electric e Vitara next spring.

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.
