Hide AdChair of the Council, Councillor Dominic Molloy: “We kick off our summer programme of events in Mid Ulster with the return of fantastic Cookstown Continental Market. Taking place a little earlier than usual in May, the market is always a firm favourite, attracting huge crowds to Cookstown for the weekend. Returning for the first time in two years, I look forward to seeing what the market has to offer and encourage our residents to come along, sample the many culinary delights and enjoy the free entertainment on offer.”
The market takes place along William Street in Cookstown town centre. To facilitate the expected increased visitor numbers in a safe environment, a road closure will be in place along William Street from 6.30pm on Friday May 10 through to approximately 10pm on Sunday May 12. The road closure will be in place from the Orritor Street/Coagh Street junction to the Burn Road/James Street junction.
