Tullamore Vintners Gone to the Dogs
------------------------------------------------

With the Enfer World Sheep Dog Trials taking place in Tullamore this July
the Tullamore Vintners Association have decided to celebrate this momentous
occasion with a themed festival throughout the pubs in the town.

The majority of pubs in Tullamore will have live entertainment, which will
entertain the thousands of visitors expected from all over the world. The
publicans are determined to put on a great schedule of events to showcase
what Tullamore has to offer. There will be bar extensions in all the pubs
Thursday - Sunday. Publicans will be decorating their pubs with flags and
bunting, creating an unique festival atmosphere with a fun and quirky sheep
dog theme. This historic event is due to generate huge exposure for
Tullamore as an excellent venue for future national & international events.
'The event is an opportunity to showcase what Tullamore has to offer around
the world' said Loughnan Hooper, and welcomed the Vintners support for the
World Sheep Dog Festival.

The largest event in the world of its kind, takes place from the 7th to the
10th of July and includes 241 dogs from 21 countries. It will feature many
other interesting side shows & stalls which will appeal to all the family.
