The Festival next year will be expanded again to accommodate The Gathering’s efforts. Finucane touched upon Kerry’s “superb golf” opportunities, and how a St. Brendan’s trail is being developed in the county. In addition to these extended special programmes, County Kerry will be hosting an array of other events during 2013 as part of The Gathering, many of which are still in development.

A primary focus will of course fall on attracting those who wish to trace their genealogical roots throughout Kerry, which has some of the most extensive  data organized in the country. For more information about The Gathering click here.
