Taste of Cahir festival underway

Cahir is set for a much needed economic boost as a two day festival of food, culture, history and art takes place in the South Tipp town.

This is the inaugral year for a “Taste of Cahir” – an event which has been hugely sucessful in Roscrea for the past few years.

The weekend activities include food markets, a fairy trail, hot air ballon trips, water activities and much more

Mayor of the Borough District, local Councillor and organiser Andy Maloney says there’s plenty to see over the weekend but Sunday is the big day.
