Winterval in Waterford 2016

A few pictures from the "Winterval" in Waterford City.  A nice little start, but maybe the organizers should get ideas from the internet and see how Christmas markets look like in mainland Europe, USA, Russia and all over the world and make the "Winterval" more exciting.

Waterford is missing a big opportunity! A beautiful glittering Christmas market with lots of shiny stalls, trader offering colorful toys, quality hand-made products, Christmas decoration and lots more and people can buy various hot and cold food, alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, that is how it should be to make Waterford proud! The market should be open every day from morning until 8 in the evening and if it was bigger and more interesting, it would bring lots of people down to our county and everyone would be happy:  children, adults and of course not to forget the traders!

I tried to explain that to the organizers many times, but unfortunately they don't want to listen, but maybe one day! I don't want to give up hope!
I wonder where is the "Irish crack"? Certainly not in this sad dull little Christmas market, if you even can call it a market, as there are just a few stalls spread all over the city and they are only open on weekends.
