Wonderfully Impressive Preparations for Busking Festival 2025
Saturday, 21st June 2025 – the longest day of the year – marks the greatly anticipated Busking Festival in Millstreet. Tremendous has been the preparations that this great event requires. Sincere congratulations to the superbly dedicated, hard working Team of Volunteers. Every success on this splendid musical event – which so reminds us all of the unforgettable excitement some 32 years ago of Eurovision Week 1993 when some 25 windows throughout Millstreet were beautifully decorated by “Visual Image” representing the 25 countries participating in the 1993 Eurovision Song Contest. Now in 2025 we view some of the very impressive approximately ten musical window displays as well as the colourful bunting feature. More window photos later. Tap on the images to enlarge. (S.R.)

Residents will begin moving into the new extension at Millstreet Community Hospital early next week
HSE South West Media Release
Friday May 23 2025
HSE South West is delighted to confirm that residents will begin moving into the new extension at Millstreet Community Hospital early next week.
This new extension at Millstreet Community Hospital is providing 11 single ensuite bedrooms as well as a bright dining room and sitting room. From Monday, staff at Millstreet Community Hosp will support residents from the existing building to move into their new accommodation, where they will continue to receive the same high-quality care in much enhanced accommodation.
The move is part of an ongoing programme of extension and refurbishment which is taking place in two phases. Next week’s move of residents from the older building will also allow Phase 2 to commence, which is the refurbishment of the old building.
Acting Director of Nursing Ger Murphy said:
“Next week will be an exciting week at Millstreet Community Hospital as we support some of our residents to move into their new accommodation. Residents are looking forward to the move, and the team here are delighted to welcome them to rooms which offer more privacy and a better standard of accommodation. Our over-riding aim is to achieve and sustain a high-quality care environment at Millstreet Community Hospital that cares for, supports and values residents in a safe and comfortable environment. These new rooms will help our dedicated team in this aim.”
HSE South West Head of Older Persons Services Jackie Daly said:
“We thank everyone involved in the project to date, including the residents and staff who have patiently waited for this phase of the development to be ready for occupation. We are delighted to be in a position to move away from shared open wards to single rooms, which offer more privacy and ensuite bathrooms.”
