Travellers forced out of Puck Fair in Kerry 1965

Travellers who had long camped in Killorglin during the Puck Fair festival were moved outside the town in 1965. This change highlighted tensions around tradition and local policy during one of Ireland’s oldest festivals. The footage captures a moment of cultural shift and community dynamics in rural Kerry.
