Sorry to be that person who vents on random subreddits lads, but this is something I would like to talk about as it’s really ruining the street scape of our beautiful medieval city. I’m just so overwhelmed and sick and tired of the MASSIVE influx of vape shops in Kilkenny city, it’s an absolute eye sore for me. Even a few years ago I thought Kilkenny had enough vape shops… but holy cow now in 2026 there’s TOO many. I literally just came back from holiday just to see they’re building a vape shop beside that cute Italian cafe just across from Kitties Cabin and a new vape shop beside House of Pretzels in Market cross. I think I could name like over 20 vape shops at the top of my head at the moment. Please don’t tell me I’m the only person who feels this way, it feels like a never ending nightmare. 🫠

Hello! I am an American Type 1 diabetic working in Kilkenny for 3 weeks. My insulin pump (Tandem TSlim X2) stopped working last night! I called customer support, and they are going to overnight a replacement to my work, and then they have to send it to me. So one is on the way, but will be at least 3 or 4 days. But for now, I have no pump!

I have plenty of insulin and pump supplies, but no syringes! I only have the ones to fill my Cartidges (huge needle and huge dosing increments = a lot of pain and very dificult to accurately dose). Wondering: does anyone have any insulin syringes I could get to use for a few days until my pump arrives? I am staying at the Pembroke Hotel downtown. I will also research if I can get them from a pharmacy being a foreigner? Not sure, but wondering if any other type 1 diabetics could maybe help me out or point me in the right direction. Thanks!

To whomever is responsible for these bollards near centra, thank you. Its a small thing but im almost never able to access this footpath due people reversing in and blocking it up so you have to walk in front on the road. I had just started to look into who to contact in the council when these appeared

Has anyone else noticed an increase in homelessness around Kilkenny over the last few years? I regularly see people sleeping rough around areas like Kieran Street, John Street and other parts of the city centre, as well as people around the Good Shepherd Centre. It’s something that’s become much more noticeable to me lately.
I’m curious about the reasons behind it. Is it mainly due to the housing crisis, addiction, mental health issues, or a combination of factors?
I’m also wondering whether most of the people sleeping rough are originally from Kilkenny, or whether many have moved here from other parts of Ireland. Does anyone know how that generally works or have any insight into it?

According to reports, the collision involved a car and a mobility scooter on Rose Inn Street shortly before 5pm.
The street is currently closed.

Thinking of treating myself to a new smile for my 30th and getting some form of braces!

Has anyone had any good (or bad) experiences in around Kilkenny/Carlow? Anywhere you’d recommend booking a consultation with?

Thanks

Hi everyone,

I'm new to kilkenny and I'm looking for some good places to go fishing nearby.

Could anyone recommend spots where I can fish? I'm also a bit confused about the permits and regulations in Ireland. Are there any places where you don't need a permit, and if a permit is required, how does the process work?

Any advice or recommendations would be really appreciated. Thanks!

Is there much progression or job openings? Anything else to be aware of?
