Road closures for Sunday’s Munster Final

By Sean Moriarty
Killarney Gardai will be operating a robust traffic management plan in Killarney town centre before and after Sunday’s Munster Final.
While the match will not get underway until 4pm, Lewis Road will be closed from 12 noon until one hour after the match. The GAA is operating 'a winner on the day' policy so extra time in the match cannot be ruled out for traffic management purposes.
Entry to O'Kelly's Villas, Marian's Terrace and St Brendan's Place from Rock Road will be restricted to local residents only, and access will be granted provided they have a Garda-issued pass in their possession.
Additionally, all other approach roads to the stadium will be subject to closures to facilitate pre-match security checks.
“There will be a ticket and bottle check on all approaches to the stadium,” a Fitzgerald Stadium spokesperson told the Killarney Advertiser. "Patrons will not gain entry to the stadium without a face covering."
Tickets for the match will be coloured-coded and fans will only be allowed enter the approach roads via the correct coloured-coded route.
“Entry points will be clearly marked.”

Jessie Buckley to perform live on RTE this Friday 22nd September

This Culture Night, Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh will present an hour-long live music and arts programme from Dún Lúiche in the heart of the Donegal Gaeltacht at 7pm on RTÉ One and RTÉ Player.
Actress and singer Jessie Buckley has been added to the list of stellar musicians who will perform with the RTÉ Concert Orchestra on the night. Jessie will perform a special rendition of a Sinéad O’Connor song in tribute to the late artist.
Jessie commented: “I am very honoured to return to Culture Night 2023 to remember Sinéad O Connor with the RTÉ Concert Orchestra. Sinéad was such a huge influence on so many women in Ireland and across the world, her courage, her mind, her politics and her intense beauty and soul. She was a warrior to humanity. I remember hearing her for the first time and feeling her uncompromising need to connect and affect. Recognising what couldn’t be said and speaking it out loud. I am so grateful for all her fire and all her love. It is such a privilege to return to Ireland for RTÉ Culture Night in Donegal to sing a song of gratitude for Sinéad and her family and friends.”
Other artists performing with the RTÉ Concert Orchestra include The Murder Capital, R&B singer and 2FM Rising star Aby Coulibaly and Irish-based Ukrainian musician Olesya Zdorovetska.

The revealing of the preferred route corridor for the construction of the new Killarney to Farranfore road has been delayed – again.
Four potential routes for the N22 Farranfore-Killarney project were identified and were put out to public consultation in May 2021. These have now been whittled down to just one.
It was previously promised that the preferred route would be published late last year.
This dragged on in to the Spring and there is still no sigh of the preferred route being revealed.
A recent Kerry County Council meeting a council official explained that there are further funding requirements to allow the council complete various reports and investigations required before the road can move to its next phase.
