Secret Garden Music Series - Cancellations

KAF JDK SECRET GARDEN MUSIC 4

Due to the yellow weather warning that is currently in place, we regret to announce that the following Secret Garden Music performances have been cancelled:

Thursday 11th

Heritage Council Garden, 4pm

Friday 12th

Gazebo, Butler House Garden, 3pm

Kilkenny Castle Rose Garden, 4pm

Saturday 13th

Butler Gallery, 3pm

Rothe House Garden, 4pm

For the safety of audiences, volunteers and performers, and because of the damaging impact that high temperatures have on performers’ instruments, we have taken the decision to cancel the pop-up performances.

At the moment, the Sunday performance at 3pm in Mount Juliet will still be going ahead. We will be monitoring the situation over the coming days and will provide updates on our website and social media.
