Leeside basked in glory of top events

WITH the last few weekends, the mighty Costa del Cork has been centre stage for, well, ages.

First off the Marquee has started having gigs again, which is very exciting. This year Nathan Carter, Jason Derulo, Dolly Parton and many more have played their jams to the mighty Leeside. The showgrounds area just outside Pairc Uí Chaoimh have shown year after year how successful these short-term venues are. Drawing in massive crowds every year and top quality acts, it’s clear Cork is a nice spot for even the highest of divas (including Kim and Kanye West).

The Irish Open also took place across the waters in Fota Resort in Cork and drew over 100,000 people.
