All over Ireland, temperatures are hitting the high twenties, and in Cork, the style was just as hot for the Cork Week Ladies’ Day.
Taking place at the Royal Cork Yacht Club in Crosshaven, the event brings together women from all over the country to enjoy the sun, sea and style it offers each year.

Against the backdrop of glorious blue skies and the buzz of Cork Week, the annual Ladies Lunch in 2026 proved to be another knockout event.
Elegant outfits, statement hats and vibrant summer colours turned heads throughout the afternoon.
Red FM’s KC and special guest Reggie performed, keeping the crowd entertained, followed by a live performance from The Loungeman and the Phil Holbird band.
