💐There's still places available on many of the fantastic workshops that are on this Saturday 13th of June as a part of Bagenalstown in Bloom 2026! A splash of blazing colour, a feast of music and workshops exploring all sorts of creativity.
The annual festival is sure to be basked in glorious colours and welcomes lots of participation by the local community and beyond.
Colour is in no short supply, with everything from street signs to benches experiencing an explosion of yarn bombing, thanks to the wonderful work of local yarn bombers including The Barrow Knitters supported by CCDP.

Get out and about exploring all that Carlow’s wonderful towns and villages have to offer. Today we explore #Clonegal.
The historically rich village of Clonegal lies between the Rivers Derry and Slaney, set in a valley between the Blackstairs and Wicklow Mountains. The Village of Cluain na nGall, or in English, the ‘Meadow of the Stranger’ is often referred to as the ‘Switzerland of Ireland’ for its outstanding natural beauty. Now that the days are getting brighter and warmer, plan a visit soon to see the stunning and colourful flower displays throughout the village.
Huntington Castle & Gardens voted one of Ireland’s top 20 Hidden Gems by The Guardian is set in over 160 acres of gardens, woodland, and farmland.

The castle offers a fabulous woodland playground, as well as a charming tearoom and gift shop. Facilities include a children’s adventure playground, coach and car park, guided castle tours, refurbished tearoom, gift shop, toilets, woodland walks and rose gardens.

The Weavers Cottage were built by Alexander Durdin in the late 17th century. They were lived in by weavers when the trade was at its height and now features many items, artefacts, furniture and pictures from bygone times. A beautiful heritage garden to the rear of the cottages featuring a variety of vegetables, and plants grown for the dyeing of wool used in weaving.
