Multicultural festival dishes up feast of food and fun fit for a Kingdom

KILLARNEY celebrated its ethnic diversity at the weekend, honouring 3,000 people from 50 countries living in the area.

The Killarney Le Chéile multicultural festival, which included indoor concerts and outdoor events, offered people who have arrived in the town an opportunity to mingle with local people in a relaxed atmosphere.

Marilyn Catapat-Counihan, coordinator of the Killarney Asylum Seekers Initiative (KASI), yesterday described the festival was very successful.
