10 Years Of IRD Duhallow Business Awards
Since beginning in 2013, IRD Duhallow’s business awards have become a staple in the local calendar. What was a humble night has turned into an elegant production complete with dinner and entertainment, with this year marking the 10th such event. The awards were missed in 2020 and 2021, but returned in 2022 with a bang that has echoed since.
The MC bar has been set high, especially with Marty Morrissey and Alan Shortt making appearances in recent years, but this year, Reggie Blackrock is sure to leap it.
Reggie from the Blackrock Road is a social media comedy sensation with over 100,000 followers across all platforms.
He will tell you that he is the richest man in Ireland, but not for tax purposes.
Reggie is the outgoing President of COCI (The Captains of Cork Industry), elite guys dedicated to maintaining the highest standards on Leeside while paying zero tax and cheating on their wives.
Broadcasting from his 6.8 million euro mansion on the Blackrock Road, his short viral videos have mocked everyone from Liz Truss to the people of Kanturk. Reggie has also played to sell-out audiences with two shows in The Everyman Theatre and is now touring Ireland with his Reggie for President Tour.
