Step back in time at Decades Festival in Cork

Experience Ireland’s largest fancy dress party, the Decades festival, in Cork this summer and you can celebrate the best of every era from the roaring twenties onwards.

This quirky festival takes place in a selection of pubs in and around Cork city on the 13th and 14th August with each venue choosing a decade for its weekend theme.

Stay at the luxurious Castlemartyr Resort, just 30 minutes from the city centre, and after a fun-packed day dressing up as your favourite character – be in Bowie or Bradshaw – you’ll be able to wind down in a truly modern setting. This charming manor-house hotel boasts a stylish interior with 103 rooms and suites, elegant wining and dining, and a truly magnificent spa and wellness centre, whilst the hotel grounds which span some 220 acres also boast a golf course along with rolling meadows and streams.

The Summer package at Castlemartyr Resort includes a two-night stay from £215 per person sharing a deluxe room* with full Irish breakfast each morning, a gourmet meal on an evening of your choice and full use of the leisure facilities.
