KILLARNEY RACECOURSE |
|
| It is known that racing first took place in
the Killarney area of County Kerry as early as 1827. Indeed, between then and 1901 racing
took place at two different venues. At that point racing ceased in the area and did not
resume until 1936. |
| |
The current racecourse is situated at Clonfert and racing
was first witnessed here in 1936. |
|
| By 1947 the course was holding a regular
Summer Festival extending over 4 days. |
