Welcome to What’s On In West Cork.

The summer has flown by and we are facing into the lovely autumn period. The time of the harvest and gathering of nature’s bounty to preserve for the winter. The cooler weather and swirling morning mists make this a great time to walk, cycle and explore our lovely countryside.

Our restaurants and bars are still buzzing with tourists and there is still a lot to do within our region. If you are in Clonakilty, why not take a tour of the town’s Distillery? The Michael Collins House Museum is exhibiting the Diaries 1918 – 1922 over the month of August.

As part of the Timoleague Festival, a Catwalk Extravaganza will be held on 28th August with proceeds to Cancer Connect / Timoleague Community.

The Bandon Walled Town Festival is in full swing with several action packed family days out.
