It’s the most wonderful time of the year and we are all about giving here at Saint Canice’s Cathedral here in Kilkenny. It’s the season of kindness and we love nothing more than seeing visitors and locals alike visiting us here in the centre of Kilkenny and spending time together. While you are in the marble city, why not pick up a gift for a loved one, or a gift for someone who hasn’t visited yet! We have some great ideas for you here as inspiration.

Gift an experience

In an age where we all have way too much “stuff”, why not give the gift of an experience in Kilkenny City this year. You are spoiled for choice along the medieval mile where you can visit Kilkenny Castle, Rothe House and Garden, The Smithwick’s Brewery and of course, our beautiful Saint Canice’s Cathedral. Tickets for our Cathedral tour start at only €4 for children and €9 for adults. The perfect gift this Christmas. Find out more here.
