The annual Ballygar Carnival takes place over the August Bank Holiday Weekend in the town of Ballygar, Co. Galway. Established in 1945, it is one of Ireland’s longest running carnivals, complete with music, concerts, bingo and a traditional Fair Day. At the Fair Day held on the Bank Holiday Monday, Ballygar Tidy Towns volunteers will hold a cake sale, and host stalls on environmental themes of waste and composting. Drop by and pick up some information booklets and handy kitchen measures supplied by Stop Food Waste. For more information, check out the Ballygar Carnival Facebook page.
