Hotels and guesthouses are quickly selling out of accommodation ahead of what's shaping up to be a bumper Bank Holiday Weekend in Kilkenny City.
It's not just The Cat Laughs Festival that's expected to draw the crowds down, Dublin's senior football clash with Kildare is scheduled for Nowlan Park on Saturday.
With a near-capacity crowd expected, alongside the good weather, many visitors from both counties are opting to stay in the city overnight!
Anyone trying to get accommodation for Kilkenny for the Kildare game. Keep an eye on https://t.co/cumG58iVvT. Snapped up a b&b this morning for €135.

According to Booking.com, 98% of accommodation providers in the city are fully booked for the Saturday, 76% for the Sunday and 72% for the Friday.
Airbnbs in the city are also almost entirely sold out, with limited options available, and those remaining are likely to be snapped up in the coming days, or even hours!
