An open drop-in meeting for people to share ideas of what they would like to see at the event took place at Damo’s Bar on Annesley Road this week.

"There were a few interesting ideas put out there at the meeting and we had a few people coming and wanting to get involved and volunteer.
"Some who weren’t able to make it have also contacted us about helping out too.

"Some of the ideas we are still waiting to finalise and get sorted and we’ll let people know about those in due course.”
The event merchandising is also stepping up with plenty of interest in the t-shirt designs being circulated on the group’s Facebook page and Damien hopes to have the online shop for these and other items up and and running very shortly.
