Both of them are working in the town centre and would have to be within walking distance. Any of the places that they have tried are looking for long term lets:( Thanks in advance

In other town centres, Ennis for example they built on a lot of the carpark to add space to the shop. Eventually they put up a multi-storey there as well.

Instead you can go to the dome and watch Ronan Collins and his fatass showband

Having said that I can't imagine the streets not having entertainment so possibly it's taking a different direction?? It's unlikely there'll be known headline acts if it's pushing more towards free entertainment though. I also saw on Facebook that Bryan Carr isn't running the street side of things this year so maybe there are other changes ahead. The square wasn't ideal last year a lot of traders put out which u can understand. The canopy was pretty cool however especially given the ****e weather. Anyone know how the 65 odd roses will be whittled down to 32 this year given the ****e that was made of last year. There was murder about the RTÉ documentary.

It would be great if a big name retailer took it on and finally give some life back to that stretch of the street. I imagine it's too small for a Marks and Spencer but could easily house H&M or maybe Zara? The next problem is what to do with the god awful Tralee Shopping Centre next door that has tumble weed blowing through all the empty units. It's embarrassing that all you can purchase in that shopping centre is either a kebab, knitting needles or some new soles for your shoes!!http://www.daft.ie/kerry/commercial-property-for-sale/retail-units-for-sale/bridge-street-tralee-kerry-441994/
