    Ha yup sounds like Donald Trump alright!!

    Yer man was actually making fair points. And by the way, insulting locals of Tralee in all your posts about the festival is not going to earn you any fans in your points.

    I wasn't insulting anyone and apologies if that's how it read.... It wasn't my intention.

    I was mearly pointing out the lack of support for the festival from some locals.

    I also think I made some fair and valid points many of which were matters of fact rather than opinion.

    Well if one is free Escape won't be getting much in except for events I'd say.

    Really that's a pity.... I'd imagine it could all move back to Denny Street in a heartbeat again so I don't see it being a big issue really.....

    Any idea what parties are making waves about it??? Is it shops/bars?????

    Would Denny st not be classed as a public space also??? How does that work??? I presume permission from kcc must be sought?

    Nothing for certain but they may only now be using only a portion of the Square at the capacity for the events is now only 1000. They can't close off the Square to the public in its entirity.

    Looks like a whole new path going in rather than repairs.
    I presume it will be tarred.

    No, entry to nightclubs is a regular thing, but from what I'm used to up in Cork they usually charge only a fiver or 6 euro in. It's no wonder the nightclub here keeps shutting down charging a tenner.

    Nope, as long as it's applied to everyone, and it's prominently displayed at the door.

    If the place is actually full of 18 years olds, and they are only stopping certain people for being under 23, then it's illegal.

    Same thing with dress code, you can say "No runners" but you have to apply it to everyone.

    Usually the threat of playing "Come On Eileen", "Karma Chameleon" and "Give Me Hope Joanna" is a far more robust deterrent to anyone under 23 (or 30 for that matter) from venturing in rather than what is said in the statue books!! :):):)

    I agree with the other posters. The admission policy is very complicated and 10 euros is a lot to pay - considering that the drinks will also not be cheap. Although someone else said that it was 5 euros in and only is 10 euros when there is a "big" name performing. If it is definitely 10 euros to get in, then yes, it seems to me to be a program for failure.

    Glad they're making it easy to submit ideas for the redevelopment of the site. Hopefully they can come up with something really worthwhile and bring that part of town back to life again.

    Exciting times ahead - hopefully

    To be fair the posts on the facebook page suggest they're not irish. Thought they were French with the way they spoke English, but further down theres a status in German (I think) so not sure who they are/where they're from..

    It's OK in Tralee. Overcast, but the sun is creeping through. Hopefully it will stay dry!

    Have you tried Macguires in Caherslee or Terry's butchers in Oakpark. I know they do gluten free products.
