Queen Maeve Square is being officially opened today by Minister for Tourism Catherine Martin.
It follows an investment of over €4 million by Fáilte Ireland, the Department of Housing, Local Government & Heritage and Sligo County Council.
Queen Maeve Square is said to have transformed the centre of Sligo into an attractive public space and orientation hub, and aims to encourage visitors to come to Sligo for events and festivals.
It will also serve as an outdoor venue for concerts and other events, with a standing capacity of approximately 4,500.
