CAMPING
We have free camping at Dunmanway GAA pitch for the Friday Night and Saturday there is a small camp site by the Hostel in Kilcrohane Village, a very short stagger from the local pubs.
If you want Self Catering let us know asap.

ENTRY ON THE DAY
You can enter on the day for both events but there will be a small admin charge, and you won't qualify for our sponsor's free bet.
It would help us if you could email your entry forms to us in advance and avoid the charge.
