KILLARNEY and the 3 Irish Open in midsummer… it’s a mouth watering proposition and everything points to a great week on the shores of Lough Leane.

Killarney celebrated the start of their four-day Summer Festival tonight with the official opening of a 1.7million re-development.

KILLARNEY races are promising fashion, fun, and most ambitiously of all, sunshine, during the three-day meeting that begins on Sunday.
