‘Culture at The Castle Festival’ ends on a high note Cahir Social and Historical Society held the last event of their ‘Culture at the Castle Festival’ last Saturday.
The event saw the return of well-known and popular RTE broadcaster, David McCullagh to Cahir once again to give historical talk titled ‘Crown and Harp: From Free State to Republic’.
The interesting talk focused on the 1923-1949 period of Irish history and a big crowd attended with a full house on the night.
David was warmly welcomed by the audience and chatted to everyone before and after the talk.

A very entertaining evening was enjoyed by all.
The Society has more events planned for the autumn so watch this space for more details.
The Culture at the Castle Festival would not have been possible with the financial support given to Cahir Social & Historical Society this season by Creative Ireland and Tipperary County Council's Festivals and Events Grant Scheme.
We are also very thankful for the assistance of the wonderful staff of Cahir Castle and OPW as well as everyone who attends.
