QUESTION NO.13

QUESTION: Councillor J. Sheehy

To ask the manager for an update on how many community events have been held in Balgaddy and the Quarryvale area in the years 2023-2024 and what was the footfall at each event.

REPLY:

In 2023 South Dublin County Council provided funding for four events, they included Halloween, summer family days, Winter Wonderland and Christmas. We increased our level of support in 2024 by providing additional funding for a summer camp, an Easter outing and a three-day Halloween event. The wonderful Wednesday summer camp in Quarryvale recorded over two thousand attendance during the summer period.

These events were funded by South Dublin County Council, but organised and delivered by relevant communities who recorded attendance levels locally.
