The introduction of an Inter Pub Quiz on Thursday evening 13th July have had the Publican’s throwing pop quiz’s nightly to get training underway!
Race2Glory takes place on Saturday 15th July with record numbers taking part – we haven’t seen as many High Nellies on the byroads of Kiltimagh since the 60’s. Seamus Corry has requested if anyone did recover his goggles from the “Dunk Tank” last year to please get in touch, as their absence is hindering his practice for this years showdown.
The Fireworks spectacular will certainly be a must see, this will follow the official opening of the festival on Friday 14th in the Festival Field @ 10.30pm. The weekend is enhanced by the presence of the Big Red Barn in Kiltimagh, Tall Trees are on stage on Friday evening from 8.00pm.

Round up the troops – Kiltimagh is the place to be for the “Coillte Come Home Festival”. See you There!!
