Opera House and book store prove they have winning vibe

CORK Opera House and the Vibes and Scribes store were yesterday named as the third quarter winners of the Cork Business Association/Heineken Ireland business awards.

Unusually, the awards were not presented in the brewery last night, but instead in the Opera House itself.

The venue took the award in the large enterprise category. According to CBA president Sean Murphy, the award was an acknowledgement of the venue’s regeneration under new chief executive Mary Hickson.
