In association with main sponsor, McCarthy Insurance Group and media partner, The Avondhu, a big promotional push is underway in advance of the forthcoming festival. This week, McCarthy Insurance Group representatives, Charles McCarthy and Paul Kavanagh, presented a sponsorship cheque to Fermoy GAA’s Tom O’Brien, Tommy O’Brien Sr. and Pat O’Brien.
According to Paul Kavanagh, this event has the potential to attract country and Irish fans from all over Ireland. “This genre is increasing in popularity all the time and I’m sure Fermoy GAA will leave no stone unturned in their efforts to make the festival a resounding success,” he said.
