This issue of What’s On Clonmel was made possible by the generous support of our readers and sponsors Tipperary Museum of Hidden History and Harney's Final Furlong.
It costs over €8,000 a year to fund What’s On Clonmel, but donations are not always enough to cover our costs. Please help us continue this work with a donation, every bit helps!
