Puck Fair

Killorglin, in the geographical heart of Kerry, is the venue for one of Ireland’s most unusual street festivals – Puck Fair. The fair is one of Ireland’s oldest and longest celebrated and is held without fail on 10th, 11th and 12th August every year with 12 hours of free family street entertainment. Each day, a number of Musical, Theatrical and Comedic Street Performances take place at various times and locations throughout the town, providing free entertainment for young and old alike. Midnight on the last night (12th) after the final official performance of the Festival, is marked by a massive Fireworks Display. Our full programme is available free of charge from the Festival office at the Reeks District tourist information office during all 3 days of Puck Fair. Note: King Puck In 2023, the Puck Fair Committee unanimously agreed that the role of the goat, our King Puck, should evolve.
