MEETING OF TALLAGHT AREA COMMITTEE

Monday, November 24, 2025

QUESTION NO. 11

QUESTION: Councillor A. Smyth

"Can I ask the Manager for a breakdown of how much was spent by SDCC (grants or own events) for Halloween activities across the Tallaght area this year?"

REPLY:

A total budget of €40,000 was allocated, covering both Spookdalkin and Tallaween. These two initiatives were costed together, as they formed part of a joint programme and were delivered from a single shared budget line.

Also a total of €4,500 was allocated to 7 Community Centre’s located in the Tallaght DEDs who applied to put in Local Halloween Community Events as part of the Annual Community Centre Management Support Fund awarded to centre’s in 2025.
