Gathering of Green Eyes

A GATHERING OF GREEN EYES

 

The 2022 Koroit Irish Festival marked the second staging of a very special event, the “A Gathering of Green Eyes”.

The event was a celebration of this wonderful Irish trait and brought those blessed with this special feature out in big numbers.

The winner was Rex Padgham, while we would also like to thank our Gathering of Green Eyes ambassador Mary Harry.

It was great fun and it’s on again in 2023.

All you need to do is look for the A Gathering of Green Eyes sign where everyone is assembled for the Street Procession at 11.45am on Saturday April 29 and follow the crowd.
