A welcome party will be hosted by Peter Clohessy’s Bar, a BBQ and live entertainment to be had there and for the night owls a trip to the sinbin will be a must. Don’t stay too late though as on Saturday there will be another fun filled day ! The Pig n Porter Rugby blitz will be held at Old Cresent RFC and Cresent Comprehensive College .
I can nearly smell that pig being spit roasted for the BBQ , the kids won’t be left out as there will be plenty of activities for them such as face painting , bouncy castles and a bucking bull.
Keep your eyes open as I hear there may be some special guest around the place !
New this year is a Hockey Blitz, being held in the Catholic Institute.
And all this with a backdrop of live music for the day and once the musicians have finished DJ Baz will take over til the early hours .
Ahh Sunday…The hair of the Hog, with €1000 up for grabs when professional and amateure spit pig roasters try to win The Inaugural All-Ireland Pig-on-a-Spit Competition, there will be a farmers market there to buy any side orders you want to go with your crackling.
Again the little ones will have something to do at the 1st Little Piggies Expo !
