Kilkenny Life spring edition - out now!

Get ready for the February/March edition of Kilkenny Life, hitting the shelves this Tuesday, February 25!

A new year brings hope and excitement as people take the first steps on what they hope will be a promising and successful 2025.

As the bright days of spring bloom, this latest edition of the Kilkenny Life magazine takes the time to look at the people and places for whom the coming 12 months will be filled with excitement and anticipation.

In musical terms, local band The Donnys will be hoping to add another note of success to their blossoming careers, as will local fashion designer Áine O’Donnell, who has used her strong family ties as a backbone for her work.

Why not take a look at some of the events that are packed into Kilkenny’s busy cultural calendar or maybe even check out the best of the county’s top culinary treats.

The start of a year is also a big step for couples, many of whom will tie the knot. With that in mind Kilkenny Life looks at some of the best venues to host your big day, as well as talking to the people who make it a memorable occasion, from bespoke wedding jewellery designer David Wilson to wedding dress expert Caroline Barcoe of Jeutonic.

Of course, there’s also time to remember that special person - check out our guide on where you can spoil your mother this Mother’s Day.

Thank you all for your support. We hope you enjoy our latest offering and get some helpful hints on what makes Kilkenny such a special place…
