Adare Town Park has proudly raised its first Green Flag, a symbol of excellence in the management of public parks and green spaces.
This prestigious award is part of the Green Flag for Parks Award Scheme, an international standard recognising best practices in sustainable park management.
On November 8th, An Taisce Environmental Education awarded Green Flags to 120 parks, gardens, greenways, and wildlife sanctuaries across Ireland, including Adare Town Park and two more parks managed by Limerick City and County Council.

- A Welcoming Place
- Healthy, Safe and Secure
- Well Maintained and Clean
- Environmental Management
- Biodiversity, Landscape and Heritage
- Community Involvement
- Marketing and Communication
- Management
