Television celebrity due in Kilkenny this weekend
The broadcaster is attending an awards ceremony locally
Kilkenny Chamber will host its annual Kilkenny Business Awards 2024 later this evening (Saturday) with popular national broadcaster Marty Whelan the MC.
Marty will be joining 500 businesspeople at the Lyrath Estate Hotel for this year’s prestigious event and will be announcing the award winners throughout the evening.
The RTE personality is a well known face on our screens having hosted Winning Streak, The Rose of Tralee and many more programmes on the national broadcaster.
"We are super excited to have the very well-known Marty Whelan hosting our Business Awards, and we know that this will add hugely to an already fantastic event," said Chamber President Anne Barber.
"Fifty-eight businesses participated in the interview stage of the awards in late October and are now looking forward to this spectacular evening of celebration."
