More tickets to go on sale for 'SPRINGSTEEN' concert set for Kilkenny Castle Park

Due to overwhelming demand, a limited number of additional tickets for the Castle Park Concert with ‘SPRINGSTEEN – A TRIBUTE’ will be released this Friday, October 3 at 10am, available at www.savourkilkenny.com. The Castle Park Concert makes its much-anticipated return on Saturday, October 25, as part of Savour the Night, a Kilkenny Night-Time Economy initiative. This open-air event, set against the stunning backdrop of Kilkenny Castle, will once again light up the city after dark with another exciting performance by one of Ireland’s leading tribute bands. In addition to the concert, the event will celebrate Kilkenny’s role as the ‘Home of Halloween’, with a costume competition. Festival organisers are inviting ticket holders to dress up and join the festivities at the Castle Park Concert where attendees will have the chance to win fantastic prizes.

Proceeds will go to Cois Nore, Kilkenny’s cancer support service, as they fundraise €2 million for their new facility on the Waterford Road. “We believe that goodwill is woven into the fabric of Kilkenny. It’s the neighbour who brings dinner. It’s the friend who drives someone to chemotherapy. It’s everyone who sees themselves in the journey, even if they’ve never walked it,” Bill Cuddihy Chairperson of Cois Nore said. Please note, once these additional tickets sell out, no further releases will be made. Read more in the Kilkenny People newspaper… FOR MORE KILKENNY CITY NEWS, CLICK HERE
