River Festival in August

A River Festival is in the planning stage for Kilcullen on 22 August.

Among the ideas proposed are a a tented market on the bank below the Canoe Club which will include food stalls, crafts and local artisan supplies.

Raft building and racing on the Liffey is also in the frame, a cross-river Tug Of War, Gladiator water pole jousting and quite a bit more.

"The success of the day will rely much on local participation and we are looking for volunteers and participants for all the activities," says Festival Committee member Brian Fallon.

A FaceBook page has also been set up and application forms can be downloaded from it.
