THE HISTORY OF DUNNES STORES
DUNNES Stores opened its first store on Patrick Street in Cork in 1944 - and it was an instant hit.
Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland's first 'shopping frenzy'.
During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne's 'Better Value' bargains.
Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 - starting with apples and oranges.
The retailer said: "Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town.
"Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong.
"Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas."
The retailer's first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960.
They added: "In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed.
"Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England."
Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people.

Irish Rail unveils new piano at Dublin's Pearse Street station

Dublin's Pearse Street Station welcomed a new public piano this week as Iarnród Éireann unveiled the latest addition to its station music programme. Musical Theatre Dublin students joined performers from Fab4 Hands Piano Beatles, who are set to play at The Beatles Weekend in Dublin this weekend, to give the piano its first play. The instrument replaces the original Pearse Station piano, installed in 2017. After nearly a decade in service, the first piano will be refurbished and relocated to The Society of Saint Vincent de Paul (SVP) Ozanam House Community Resource Centre in Mountjoy Square, Dublin, where it will support music and education programmes for children and families. The new piano was designed by Dublin-based visual artist Sarah Edmondson, her fourth for an Iarnród Éireann station since 2017. Sarah Edmondson's design takes inspiration from the rail journey north from Pearse to Howth, incorporating the Irish proverb Bíonn siúlach scéalach, meaning 'those who travel have tales to tell'. Set under a full moon, the artwork features patterns left by limpets on coastal rocks, drawing a visual parallel between their daily movements and commuter routines, and reflecting Iarnród Éireann's commitment to supporting local biodiversity. Waterford-born and Dublin-based, Sarah Edmondson is a visual artist, museum and gallery educator, and studio member at MART, Dublin. She has a long-standing relationship with Irish Rail, having previously designed public pianos for stations including Heuston, as well as the original piano in Pearse Street, inspired by the coastal journey along the south side of the Dart line. 'Pearse Station was where Iarnród Éireann's public piano journey began, so it's a privilege to return to create a new chapter here,' she said. 'This design reflects the journey north to Howth, the rhythm of daily travel, and the moments of imagination that can make any journey a little more special. 'I hope it encourages passengers to pause, play, and add their own stories to the station's soundtrack,' she added. Joanne Bissett, Iarnród Éireann Arts & Social Officer, said the piano had been 'part of daily life for thousands of commuters for nearly a decade'. Dublin piano tuner John Murphy, who has worked on the project since its inception, said the pianos had become a 'much-loved feature', providing a soundtrack to commuters' daily journeys and weekend trips.

In The Picture: Wunderhorse live at Collins Barracks

UK alt-rock contenders Wunderhorse, supported by Shame, lit up Collins Barracks in Dublin as part of the Wider Than Pictures concert series - enjoy a gallery of pics from photographer Leah Carroll above. London-based post-punk outfit Shame took to the stage with raw, magnetic energy, soaking the crowd in riffs and soul-baring vocals that echoed through the Barracks. Wunderhorse, with their signature melodic hooks, continued to win over a sold-out venue for the evening. Having successfully smashed their biggest Irish headlining show to date, we predict bigger venues to come.

Kneecap thank supporters who came out in force for rapper's Westminster court hearing

KNEECAP has thanked the hundreds of supporters who came out in force as band member Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh attended a hearing at Westminster Magistrate's Court yesterday. The rapper, who performs in the Irish language hip hop group under the name Mo Chara, was met with throngs of flag-waving supporters as well as journalists and photographers as he arrived at the court. In May the Metropolitan Police's Counter Terrorism Command charged the Belfast native over a Palestinian flag allegedly displayed at Kneecap's show at the O2 Forum in Kentish Town, London on November 21, 2024. The force said that the 27-year-old displayed the flag "in such a way or in such circumstances as to arouse reasonable suspicion that he is a supporter of a proscribed organisation, namely Hezbollah". Kneecap band member Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh leaves Westminster Magistrates' Court yesterday, where his hearing was adjourned until September (Pic: Getty Images) Following his first appearance at Westminster Magistrates' Court on June 18, he was released on unconditional bail to return yesterday. He was released on unconditional bail once again as this week's hearing - which was set to establish whether chief magistrate Judge Paul Goldspring has jurisdiction to hear the case - was adjourned. He is now due to return to the court to hear the judge's findings on September 26. Ó hAnnaidh's bandmates Naoise Ó Cairealláin and JJ Ó Dochartaigh, who perform as Moglai Bap and DJ Provai respectively, joined him at the hearing. The band later thanked those supporters who were also in attendance in a social media post. 'A massive GRMA to everyone who came out to support us as their carnival of distraction rolls on,' they said. 'We will be back on September 26 for the Court to determine jurisdiction, we have set out why it does not.' They added: 'Kneecap is not the story. Palestine is the story. The British government are aiding a genocide, do not stop calling them out.' Guildford Four and Birmingham Six lawyer Gareth Pierce is leading the legal team defending Ó hAnnaidh as he fights the charge against him. The team also includes Belfast-based Darragh Mackin of Phoenix Law, Brenda Campbell KC, Jude Bunting KC and Blinne Ni Ghralaigh KC.
