Kilkenny is the largest town in the county and as a result most of the major opportunities for shopping are to be found here. Many national and international retailers have a presence here, so visitors can take the time for a high street splurge should they wish to do so.
However, the greatest appeal of shopping in County Kilkenny and Kilkenny itself are the multitude of small, independent local shops selling an incredible variety of arts and crafts, from pottery to jewellery, many of which are unique to the county and make for fantastic souvenirs.
