Killarney GAA club, Dr Crokes, will be playing in the All-Ireland club football final, in Croke Park, tomorrow and around 3,000 fans will be there.

The annual St Patrick’s Day parade, in Killarney, is due to start at exactly the same time as the match, 2pm, but many people staying at home will be watching live match coverage on TG4.
