Ballykisteen Hotel & Golf Resort hosts conferences of up to 400 delegates theatre style, dinner dances for 250 and weddings with on-site ceremonies, across six meeting rooms and a championship golf course. The hotel stands at Limerick Junction, Monard, in County Tipperary, Ireland, below the Galtee Mountains.
Seminars and company events
The business offer covers meetings and conferences, in-house events, corporate golf days, team building and packages for sports teams. The six rooms run from an eight-seat boardroom to the Palatine Ballroom, so a plenary and several breakout rooms can work in parallel. The hotel's own overview cites events of up to 280 people for large corporate programs, so confirm the working figure for your format. A conference brochure and an enquiry form are available on the site. Golf can be built into the program as a corporate golf day on the resort course.
Weddings and receptions
Ballykisteen holds one wedding per day. Ceremonies take place in the hotel's licensed ceremony rooms, and civil ceremonies are offered. Packages include intimate weddings as well as larger receptions, and pre and post wedding celebrations. Drinks and canapés are served in rooms facing the mountains, and the landscaped grounds and golf course are used for photographs. A wedding coordinator follows the couple from first enquiry to the day itself, and a Bridal Suite is kept for the couple.
