"From the moment we arrived in the town, it was clear why it was shortlisted. The locals are very convincing on the positives associated with Killarney: a perfect mix of scenery such as lakes and mountains, and a great variety of activities for both tourists and locals:
GAA matches in Fitzgerald Stadium, concerts in the INEC, climbing Carrauntoohil or canoeing in the Lakes of Killarney.
“It suits all ages and offers a range of choices regardless of the weather.”
