Why not celebrate St. Patrick’s Festival in Cashel, Co Tipperary this year and attend the spectacular fireworks display on Saturday 15th March 2008 - which, for the first time ever, is being held outside Dublin. Read on for more…

Watch the skies light up with a magnificent choreographed display of music, colour, and lights, from one of the best vantage points in the south - the Rock of Cashel in County Tipperary from 6.30pm - 8.30pm.

The Rock of Cashel is one of Ireland’s top historical attractions with the majority of the buildings dating from the 11th century. For over 900 years it was the seat of bishops and even the seat of the High Kings of Munster.

This spectacular landmark rises high above the low lying plains of the Golden Vale and it can be seen for miles around, making it the perfect choice for the fireworks display.

The Rock of Cashel towers over the picturersque town of Cashel in South Tipperary. Getting there isn’t too difficult as it’s located just off the N8 - which is the main Dublin to Cork road. The town is the perfect venue for events such as the Skyfest as it’s just about a 1 hour drive from Cork, Kilkenny, Limerick and Waterford.

This event is expecting up to 50,000 spectators so if you’d like to stay closeby then check out our Cashel accommodation page. We’ve got plenty of accommodation all over County Tipperary, so if you’d like to be within driving distance check out our Tipperary accommodation page.
