A new Skate Park has officially opened in the South East.

The long-awaited Min Ryan Skate Park in County Wexford launched this afternoon.

Work on the €300,000 project began in 2020 and recent delays caused some set-backs to the launch date.

But, despite the damp and dreary weather today, it didn't stop eager skaters of all ages and abilities hitting the concrete.
