Puck Fair will take place in Killorglin from August 10 -12

Reducing the opening hours in local pubs during Puck Fair would be “an attack on the identity” of the festival, Killarney Circuit Court has heard in evidence during an appeal to allow the pubs to remain open until 3am.

Earlier this month Kerry District Court Judge David Waters refused the exemption until 3am for pubs in during Killorglin during Puck Fair ending a tradition that has been ongoing since the 1970s.
