<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">Plan Now for The Final of the Boyle Sports Irish Greyhound Derby which will take place on Saturday 17th of September 2016. The composition of the schedule for 2016 seeks to maximise the quality of racing based on the current pools of greyhounds available for racing. The schedule also seeks to avoid direct clashes involving the same category of greyhounds for example, Bitch, Puppy, Sprint and Staying events. This enables greyhounds to compete in their favoured or specialised category or distance throughout the whole year.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

The date for the Irish Laurels ensures that owners and trainers can go for the Scottish and English Derby’s and still compete in the Irish Laurels”.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

I hope all concerned for the industry will fully support the 2016 schedule which we believe will deliver the best of racing for greyhound enthusiasts, our sponsors and the public generally in 2016”.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">“The IT company that I work for, designated me to provide an evening of entertainment for a group of potential investors coming in from the USA. I took a gamble, as a friend had recommended Shelbourne Park. The gamble paid off and I was a real winner with the company, following a fantastic meal at Shelbourne Park, the race-card got under starters orders and my Asian/American guests had a fun filled night, as the races were so close together, it meant that we were focused on the next race and had great fun with the pick4 selections and Tri-casts and Fore-casts, it really was fun and more importantly, I did not have to make small talk all evening. We got the contract, I got the promotion, and I am now an enthusiast for a night at the races no matter what the occasion”. John Mac, Dublin.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">“When someone suggested that I take our active retirement group to a night at Shelbourne Park, my first reaction was, are you joking? On the night, the staff were friendly and professional, the food was as good as any restaurant in Dublin in which I have eaten, and the thrill and excitement of watching the greyhound racing from a cosy warm restaurant atmosphere, taught an old dog new tricks, you are never too old to learn something new”. Ann, Active Retirement Group, Meath.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 17.12px;">“My twins were making their communion, and my sister said that we should have the kids party at Shelbourne Park Greyhound Stadium. My sister is a good judge of people and places, and I knew that she would not suggest any venue for this special occasion, unless it would come up trumps. We booked one of the suites upstairs, it was decorated beautifully and the food and ambiance was second to none, the pictures were unique and my children and their friends have never stopped talking about the fun day they had”.

The package offered by Shelbourne Park was fantastic and real value for money, we had a great night, and we simply walked out the front gate to the taxi rank and our pre-arranged mini-bus took us directly and safely to our hotel”.

We were all able to report for work next day, and unlike some of the Temple Bar Stags I had been at, I could actually remember this one and we had great pictures to show the great night we enjoyed at the races, which was hassle free”.

Hotels and Guesthouses in Dublin provided some of the best value in 2013 and this is expected to continue in 2014 with Accommodation vendors in Gardiner Street Dublin now providing comfortable rooms at 30% less than similar accommodation vendors in Temple Bar, with Temple Bar being only 5 minutes’ walk from Gardiner Street. One local Guesthouse owner said:</div>
<div data-mce-style="text-align: justify;" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 24px; text-align: justify;">
“Gardiner Street is now recognised the world over as a premiere accommodation hub that is within 5 minutes’ walk of Dublin’s major attractions and yet offers clean comfortable rooms and a very personal service that is at least 30% cheaper than other accommodation in Dublin. Tourists want to spend their money on themselves and their families not on over-priced accommodation that is overpriced simply because of its location”.<br />

In 2013 there was a 7 per cent rise in visitor numbers for the island of Ireland, the best since the global economic crisis began. To capitalise on this growth and the predicted growth for 2014 (ERSI predicting 2.7% growth in domestic economy) it is essential that each accommodation vendor in Dublin takes full advantage of premium events that will maximise both occupancy and revenue, good rate management will ensure that the low season (2014-2015) will be easier to manage.</div>

Some eight million visitors came to Ireland in 2013 generating €3.64 billion in revenue. Some 6.8 million people visited the Republic, while 1.7 million visitors visited the North. Some 500,000 people visited both parts of the country.</div>

The figures have been bouyed by a record number of visitors from North American, Germany, France and Spain along with Australia and New Zealand. However, the British market remains substantially down on its peak in 2007, despite numbers being up by 7 per cent this year. It can be reasonably anticipated that UK numbers will rise as the UK is now officially out of recession.</div>

The number and length of foreign holidays taken by Irish people fell by 2 per cent in the first six months in the year compared with the same period last year and spent €47m more on foreign holidays in the first half of the year, this trend is likely to continue and it is essential that we again promote ‘Staycation’ packages in Dublin, with a particular emphasis on families.</div>

Tourism Ireland chief executive Niall Gibbons said The Gathering had “exceeded all our expectations” though it will be the New Year before figures become clearer.</div>

“It looks like that figure will be exceeded comfortably by year end and even the figures for Dublin Airport for November are up by 7 per cent. We expect 2014 to be something positive like that as well.”</div>

Next year will see new flights from San Francisco, Toronto, mainland Europe and Great Britain with Ryanair adding nine new routes from April while also increasing the frequency on eight new routes.</div>

In addition there will be new Irish Ferries sailings from Holyhead and Cherbourg while LD Lines will launch a sailing from St Nazaire linking with Gijón in northern Spain to Rosslare.</div>
<div data-mce-style="text-align: justify;" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 24px; text-align: justify;">
Mr Gibbons said the best prospect for growth in tourism numbers will come from North America and continental Europe, as visitors from those regions tend to stay longer and spend more money. British visitors tend only to stay an average of four and a half days.</div>
<div data-mce-style="text-align: justify;" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 24px; text-align: justify;">
He revealed that the value for money ranking for Ireland from North American and continental visitors is the best it has been for 10 years. This is led by the hotel sector, with Irish hotels being rated the third cheapest in Europe. Gardiner Street Dublin Accommodation Co-Operative can enjoy greater occupancy numbers by continue to explain to guests and potential guests that Accommodation in Gardiner Street is at least 30% cheaper when compared with similar accommodation in Temple Bar, yet Temple Bar is only a 5 minute walk away.</div>

To replace The Gathering, the focus on promotion will be on promoting the Wild Atlantic Way, a 250 kilometre route from the Inishowen Peninsula in Donegal to Kinsale in Co Cork.</div>

The Guardian called it “a Herculean work of interviewing and editing which gives everyone a voice, from the biggest stars to the lowliest foot soldiers”. Mark joins us at Banter to talk about the book, the Seattle scene and the grunge legacy.<o:p></o:p></span><a href="http://stagandhenweekends.ie/" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18px;">Stag Party</a></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18px;">It’s our favourite kind of Banter panel – one with a lot of questions. What is Irish style? Is there such a thing? How does it manifest itself in Irish fashion? Is Irish style bright orange in colour? Do Irish men know anything about style? What does Irish style look like in the future? Our panel for this walk down the catwalk: Angela Scanlon (TV presenter, fashion writer and stylist) and Sonya Lennon (RTE Off the Rails, Lennon Courtney).</span><a href="http://stagandhenweekends.ie/" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18px;">Stag Party</a></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18px;">The Kilkenny Arts Festival turns 40 this year so it’s timely to look at the past, present and the future of the arts sector in Ireland. Colm Tóibín (novelist and playwright), Maureen Kennelly (arts producer, programmer, curator of the Mountains to Sea DLR Books Festival and former director of the Kilkenny Arts Festival and Cúirt International Festival of Literature), Donnacha Dennehy (composer and Crash Ensemble founder) and Willie White (Dublin Theatre Festival artistic director and chief executive) discuss what we’re learned over the last 40 years, the issues which the arts sector believe should be sorted out today and where things go from here.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18px;">It is the great cry of the political chattering classes: we need reform! Yet as various opinion polls have showed, the Irish electorate place the need for reform very far down on their list of priorities. Just how serious are we about reforming how our political system works – or doesn’t work? Is it merely a case of some politicians paying lip service to the idea to score points or is there an actual hunger for meaningful, pragmatic change? a conversation with some interested parties, including Harry McGee (Irish Times) and Sarah O’Neill (Dailwatch) about the real issues behind the clarion call for reform. <o:p></o:p></span><a href="http://stagandhenweekends.ie/" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18px;">Hen Party in Kilkenny</a></div>

<br />
It you've got to organise a hen night, fear not - there are plenty of options from murder mystery evenings to farm bootcamps.<br />
<br />
So your best friend is getting married and has appointed you chief bridesmaid. Congratulations. It’s now officially your job to listen to the endless details, wear the unflattering dress and, worst of all, organise the hen night.<br />
<br />
A poison chalice if ever there was one – what if nobody comes? What if everybody comes but nobody enjoys themselves? What if no one wants to totter round Temple Bar in an L-plate all night?<br />
<br />
Relax. The good news is that, after years of telling us they didn’t want noisy hen dos lowering the tone, Ireland’s hoteliers are falling over their stilettos trying to attract them. What’s more, there are now loads of hen-oriented activities that you can combine a hotel stay with, to ensure everybody has a good time.<br />
<br />
At the White Lady Hotel <a href="http://stagandhenweekends.ie/">stagandhenweekends.ie</a> in Kinsale, they gave one of their store rooms a makeover and devoted it to hen parties. Now known as The Powder Room, it’s a suitably girly space which hens can use as base camp for a range of different activity packages.<br />
<br />
Hens often, for example, use it to book a make-up class, before heading into the nightclub next door where management reserve the VIP section for the group.<br />
<br />
Another option is a Murder Mystery Ireland <a href="http://stagandhenweekends.ie/">stagandhenweekends.ie</a> hen event. Apparently, dead bodies are a guaranteed way to break the ice between friends and future family, no matter how frosty the initial relations.<br />
<br />
Based in Mayo, the MMI team operates nationwide and provides costumes to ensure everyone is safely in character before the backstabbing starts, with a facilitator laid on to ensure any blood on the carpet is fake.<br />
<br />
For something a little more sedate, how about a pottery session? With marriage on the way, it’s only a matter of time before plates get thrown, so start by throwing them on a potter’s wheel.<br />
<br />
At The Pottery Experience <a href="http://stagandhenweekends.ie/">stagandhenweekends.ie</a> in Portmarnock, Co Dublin, hens produce personalised tableware for the bride and groom, which makes for a nice memento.<br />
<br />
Everyone gets to either decorate a breakfast or dinner set, or design and decorate a commemorative platter. Bring your own food and drink and make a night of it. The Pottery Shed <a href="http://stagandhenweekends.ie/">stagandhenweekends.ie</a> offers a similar service in Kilkenny.<br />
<br />
In Galway, hen parties are a speciality of Dance Divas <a href="http://stagandhenweekends.ie/">stagandhenweekends.ie</a>, a studio in Dominick Street. Choose a style of dancing – anything from Michael Jackson’s Thriller zombies to 1950s Grease style – don the costumes, learn the moves and have your picture taken afterwards on the specially dressed set. The additional bonus here is that you’ll all have a great new dance routine for the wedding.<br />
<br />
The Strand Hotel <a href="http://stagandhenweekends.ie/">stagandhenweekends.ie</a> in Limerick has residential hen packages with a mix of cocktails, clubbing or discounted hair and beauty treatments to choose from.<br />
<br />
Then, depending on what you prefer, the hotel can also organise, for a supplement, hen activities such as a roller disco session, private dance lessons, make-up sessions and even a nude art class. Just to be clear, the hens keep their kit on, the model guy doesn’t.<br />
<br />
If it’s more practical help your bride is in need of, check out An Grianan, in Termonfeckin, Co Louth, headquarters of the Irish Countrywomen’s Association (ICA) Bootcamp, as seen on RTÉ. The D Hotel <a href="http://stagandhenweekends.ie/">stagandhenweekends.ie</a> in nearby Drogheda has special discounted rates for group bookings headed for the ICA.<br />
<br />
Finally, how about a hen party in a place where there really are hens? Causey Farm <a href="http://stagandhenweekends.ie/">stagandhenweekends.ie</a>, in Meath, attracts brides-to-be and their buddies to find out how to chase chooks, milk cows and catch banbhs.<br />
<br />
There’s art too, as guests are encouraged to paint their life stories on the walls of barns. And there’s a spa element – in that hens are led to a strip of bog, told to take off their tights or socks and walk, barefoot, through it, for a pedicure like no other.<br />
<br />
Causey’s owners can arrange accommodation packages with local hotels, leaving hens free to address practical skills such as how to bake soda bread, play the bodhrán and dance jigs, possibly all at the same time.<br />
<br />
On-farm fun is guaranteed and you’ll all be BFFs, like, forever.<br />
