A property group wants to demolish Leisureplex in Stillorgan, which first opened in the sixties.

The 232 luxury homes would include a roof terrace, cinema, gym and residents' lounge.
If given planning permission Kennedy Wilson plans to create four restaurants and cafes, and two retail units on the site.
However, a local Councillor has raised concerns about the potential loss of the bowling alley.

We found out a few weeks ago that October Fest will not be back in Dublin for 2019, but they have come out today with a statement:
