We are so deeply saddened to learn of the death of Elmarie Mawe.

For decades, Elmarie has been the voice of the arts in Cork as host of The Arts House on Cork’s 96FM and C103. Elmarie was a passionate advocate for the arts and for our city, a consummate professional, and a welcoming host and interviewer.

We’re honoured to say that Elmarie had a long history with The Everyman: she graced our stage on many occasions, both as an actor and narrator of concerts; and it was in our theatre bar where she first met her husband and long-time collaborator, Conor Tallon, in 1997 after a performance of The Stepping Stone by G.P. Gallivan, in which Elmarie was starring.

We will miss Elmarie dearly. Sunday mornings on the radio and opening nights at the theatre won’t be the same without her. We send our deepest condolences to her husband Conor Tallon, her family and friends, and the staff of Cork’s 96FM and C103.

Ar dheis Dé go raibh a hanam dílis.

The Newmarket Autumn Festival is set to return to north Cork for 10 days of music and craic while celebrating all things local.

The highly anticipated Newmarket Rose competition will make its return for the first time since 2004, with 24 Roses vying for the sash that previously led to the winner throwing their hat into the Cork Rose of Tralee selection ring.

The itinerary for the 10 days includes a range of other events including a guided nature walk, trad sessions, festival quiz, pitch and putt, and musical performances by country music stars including Jake Coffey and Stuart Moyles.

Other headline events include music bingo, the Parade of Roses and festival fireworks.
