The final touches are being put on this year’s festive offering in the city, which will be launched later this week.

For the first time in nearly three years, thousands of people will visit Limerick city ahead of the holiday period to do their Christmas shopping, meet up with friends and soak up the unique city centre atmosphere while enjoying the Christmas in Limerick festive fare on offer.

Limerick City and County Council confirmed last month there will be no large event to switch on the city's Christmas Lights and that the budget will be use to provide a greater number and and variety of Christmas-themed events at locations and venues across the city.

Bookings from interested traders will be taken on a first come, first served basis.
