Spread the word – free Friday entry at museum

THE world’s largest butter museum is opening free every Friday.

The Free Friday initiative will grant free admission to the Cork Butter Museum in the city’s historic Shandon quarter every Friday until September.

Irish chef and food champion Darina Allen has backed the initiative, which has already boosted visitor numbers to the museum by 15%. But organisers are hoping that with Ms Allen’s support, the venue will get a major boost during the peak August season.
