It was a big weekend for the parish as the bicentenary of St Canice’s Church was celebrated. The church was founded by Fr James Gorman and Fr John Gorman in 1824, with work completed in 1839.
Events began with a concert on Friday night which showcased a remarkable array of talent, including The Carrigans, Billy and Caoimhe, who were joined by Seathrun Ó Casaide; the Unity Singers, Male Voice Sospiro, Ukrainian choir and St Canice’s and the young musicians from CBS and St Canice’s Primary School were great.
