Clonmel’s Market Place will be transformed into a Christmas market over the winter period.
‘Clonmel On Ice’ will bring a first of its kind ice rink to the town, and is Clonmel BIDs first major project in the local area.
The ice rink opens today, and will run until January, with tickets available for purchase online.
Organisers say that Clonmel On Ice will benefit businesses across the town over the Winter period and businesses are encouraged to take advantage of the increased footfall.
Speaking to TippFM, Clonmel BID CEO May Stokes teased the markets that will be set up over December:
“So the ice rink is open on the 14th of November and runs until the middle of January, but actually across December we’re going to be having Christmas markets at the ice rink. So on Saturday the 12th, Sunday the 13th, Saturday the 19th and Sunday the 20th of December there’s going to be Christmas markets at Marketplace in Clonmel and we’ll have vendors from all over the county coming together. It’s an ideal place to come along and get your Christmas shopping done and of course you can go in for a skate afterwards, it’s all going to be centralised in there and Marketplace.”
