Killarney pubs get early opening for Munster Final

Pubs in Killarney have been granted a special exemption to open early tomorrow to cater for the crowds arriving for the Cork-Kerry Munster Football Final.

The application for an area exemption under Section 10 of the Intoxicating Liquor Acts was heard at Killarney District Court yesterday.

However, Judge James O’Connor refused to back a 10am opening time requested by the vintners and instead set an opening time of 11am. The judge warned gardaí to prosecute anyone who opened before this.
