Spooky times ahead

The programme for this year’s Dragon of Shandon Festival has been announced, complete with a spooky new treasure trial.

Visitors will be able to access a special map which will reveal the locations of the installations around Shandon and North Main St, and directions on how to search for the clues hidden along the trail.

Although there will not be a parade this year, the festival’s motley crew of skeletons have been working themselves to the bone to bring something truly spook-tacular to the streets of Cork this Halloween.

There will also be prizes for the first to complete all the clues and finish the trail.
