Description:

An Evening of Racing Lore and Local Flavours

Come and join us at The Keadeen Hotel as we step into the living history of Irish racing. Our venue was once the cherished home of legendary trainer Darkie Prendergast, and you can still feel that rich heritage today.

We will begin with a welcoming drinks reception on the lawns, walking the very ground where champions once stood. Afterwards, we will gather for an intimate long-table dinner in the historic rooms that shaped generations of racing excellence. Our chefs have crafted a spectacular six-course tasting menu that showcases the finest local produce and celebrates the best regional flavours.

We are also thrilled to welcome former champion jockey Fran Berry and renowned broadcaster Kevin O’Ryan. They will take us far beyond the grandstands with friendly chat, personal stories, and expert insights into what makes The Curragh a world-class training ground.
