The annual Kilkenny Tourism Summer Networking Evening will take place on Thursday 23rd July 2026 at Butler House & Garden.

It is an opportunity to meet fellow tourism and hospitality businesses in Kilkenny, forge connections and partner together to strengthen Kilkenny’s offering as a visitor destination. Based on feedback from members, the theme of this year’s event will be Collaboration & Empowerment – focusing on how businesses can work together and empowering you to develop your business further to keep up with the changing travel demands and trends.

In addition to networking time, we will hear from a panel of experts who will discuss these topics and share their insights and knowledge with those in attendance.

Meet the Panel

Brian O’Flynn – head of Ireland’s Ancient East at Fáilte Ireland
Grainne Kelliher – director at Green Broker Consulting & Kerry Tourism Industry Federation sustainability committee lead
