    I am thinking of visiting Cork City this Sunday. I havent been down to the real capital in a long time and i was wondering if i could have some suggestions of things to do/see in around the city and close to the city on a Sunday?


    Thanks!

    No time for a more complete answer right now but if there's any chance you can switch to Saturday it'd be worth it. For some reason Cork is pretty much a ghost town on Sunday (with everything closed) till around lunch time and even at that there's not half as much a buzz about the place as there is on a Saturday. The English market is closed too on Sunday's which is a big thing to miss out on IMO.

    Pride Parade in the city at 2pm on the Grand Parade should create a bit of a buzz around the town
    Vintage Festival and Fun Day in Roberts Cove (No idea of the time...)
    Sprint Triathlon in Whitegate at 10.30am
    Other than that the usual touristy attractions as mentioned above.
