King Puck ready to reign over renowned ‘recession-proof’ fair

Will one of the country’s oldest festivals defy the recession and the dreadful weather?

The organisers of three-day Puck Fair, which starts in Killorglin, Co Kerry, tomorrow, believe the wild abandon for which the event is renowned will again prevail.

Fair chairman Declan Mangan last night went as far to say that Puck was “recession-proof” because all the entertainment was free.
