  2. Local Fairs

    Share Share Post
    There is a fair held in almost every town in every month. The local fairs are held in Dunlavin, Baltinglass, Ballymore-Eustace, Hacketstown, and Naas. Long ago there was a fair in Donard but it is now discontinued. The fair of Dunlavin is held on the second Wednesday of every month. There are two fairs in Hollywood one of them is on the first of November. When people are buying sheep, cattle, or pigs they always give back some money for luck.
