Organisers of the Kinsale 7's have erected signs around the town to deter people attending the event from drug use and anti social behaviour.

The event returns after a three year absence next week, running over two days on April 29th and 30th.

The Judge said there is a history of offending at the event, including public order and drug related issues which meant the warnings were needed.
