Carlow Rooster Festival
The Carlow Rooster Festival runs from October 5th - 7th 2018. The Potato Food Trail All throughout the Festival various hotels, restaurants & cafe’s will have a special potato dish available to celebrate the Rooster and its connections to Carlow. National Potato Picking Championship The National Potato Picking Championship will take place on the Saturday of the Festival. This fun event will be part of the Family Open day in Oak Park on the 6th October. We are looking for teams of 4 people to compete to see who can pick the most potatoes (in weight) in 5 minutes. In the interest of fairness to those less green fingered competitors amongst us, all potatoes will be prepicked out of the ground & just need to be packed. Spub Crawl The weekend includes a Spub crawl with live music and entertainment in Carpe Diem, Carpenters, O’Loughlins, Teach Dolmain and Reddy's. Fun Family Open Day There will be a fun family day on Saturday 6th October from 12 – 5pm with lots of great activites planned there’s something for all the family to enjoy. Register your team...
