Beach set for record ‘sand angels’ bid

An attempt to create the world record for the most “sand angels” will be made at Duncannon Beach tomorrow as part of the annual Sand Sculpting Festival.

According to forecasts, the weather may be slightly better than in recent days for the festival, which gets under way tonight with a beach party and fireworks display.

Professional sculptors from Duathain Dealbh (Fleeting Sculpture) are creating a village of knights and princesses which will be unveiled tomorrow morning on the beach in the Wexford village.
