Want to take the first step towards a healthier, happier you?

Pat Sheehan Health and Fitness offers a comprehensive 12-week programme in lifestyle management and weight-loss. Contact Pat on 087-6856930 and book your consultation either at Club Vitae, Hotel Killarney, or in his fitness studio The Loft in Millstreet, Co Cork.

Killarney native Pat has helped hundreds of people change their lives for the better through weight-losses of up to 10 stone. Pat has wealth of expertise in this area and has worked in the health, fitness and wellbeing industry for almost a decade.

Following a thorough consultation, Pat will devise a plan tailored to your precise requirements. You will receive a fully illustrated book that Pat has penned himself based on his years of experience. This publication makes it super-easy and enjoyable to follow the 12-week programme.

This book offers a food diary as well as wonderful recipes and menus, all featuring everyday food and ingredients. The beauty of the plan is all consultations are one-to-one and personalised to each individual client. You will meet Pat once a week for your weigh-in, motivation and nutrition advice. He has a truly enviable track record when it comes to helping men and women achieve their weightloss goals as well as optimum health and fitness levels. “Weight loss is my area of expertise,” he said. “I explain everything in detail and spend up to an hour and a half on the initial consultation. A key point is understanding why you eat, and how often. You have a better chance of keeping weight off and maintaining a healthy weight when you understand the process fully.”

Motivation is also a key aspect of shedding pounds and maintaining a healthy weight. “Being accountable to someone every week and getting the right advice and being able to eat normal, everyday foods is what sets this plan apart, whether you want to lose a few pounds or several stone,” said Pat.

“Everyone needs a bit of encouragement.”

It is €140 for the 12-week course. This includes the one and a half hour consultation before you commence the 12-week weight-loss programme.

Killarney marks 20 years since the rally that inspired Ireland BikeFest

Ireland BikeFest returns to Killarney from 29 to 31 May, marking 20 years since the 2006 European HOG Rally that originally brought the festival to the town.

What began as a one-off European Harley-Davidson event in 2006 led to the launch of Ireland BikeFest the following year.

It has since grown into Ireland’s largest free open motorcycle and music festival, drawing visitors annually from across Ireland, the UK, and Europe over the June Bank Holiday weekend.


“Twenty years ago, Killarney fell head-over-wheels in love with the biking community,” says Patrick O’Donoghue, Chairman of Ireland BikeFest.


“There was something electric about that first rally in 2006. The sound, the atmosphere, the camaraderie and the town embraced it completely. Ireland BikeFest grew from that connection and twenty years later the relationship is stronger than ever.”


The 2026 anniversary festival will feature the purpose-built Bike Village at the Gleneagle, guided ride-outs along the Wild Atlantic Way, live music, a Custom Bike Show, and the traditional Sunday bike parade through the streets of Killarney.


Supported by Harley-Davidson, the Gleneagle, and Fáilte Ireland, the event remains free and open to all riders, bikes, and visitors. For more information, visitwww.irelandbikefest.com.

Two local connections secure top spots in Hot Press Readers’ Poll

Killarney took pride of place in both the film and literary categories of this year’s ‘Hot Press’ Readers’ Poll, with local connections winning two of the main national awards.

The Best Film award went to Hamnet , starring Killarney actress Jessie Buckley. Buckley’s performance as Agnes Shakespeare in the feature adaptation has been a major success, and Hot Press readers have now voted it their favourite movie of the year.


Meanwhile, author Joseph O’Connor won the Best Book category with his latest novel, The Ghosts of Rome.

O’Connor has a strong historical link to the area, as his recent books are based on Killarney humanitarian Monsignor Hugh O’Flaherty and his wartime exploits in Rome.

O’Connor has long championed the legacy of the Killarney native, whose memorial statue stands in the town centre.
