Take your seat at Vintage Week afternoon tea table in support of Offaly Hospice
As part of the 2026 Birr Vintage Week programme, this unique event has quickly become much more than an afternoon tea
Following the outstanding success of last year's inaugural event, Offaly's Longest Vintage Afternoon Tea Table returns to the County Arms, Birr, on Wednesday, August 5 next, inviting the community to come together for a memorable afternoon in aid of Offaly Hospice.
As part of the 2026 Birr Vintage Week programme, this unique event has quickly become much more than an afternoon tea. It is an opportunity for friends, families, neighbours and visitors to gather, celebrate community, and support a cause that touches so many families across Offaly.
Set along the iconic tree-lined driveway of the County Arms, guests will enjoy a beautifully presented Vintage Afternoon Tea, accompanied by bottomless Prosecco and Mimosas, all for €49 per person, with proceeds supporting the invaluable work of Offaly Hospice.
Following the wonderful response to its debut last year, the team at County Arms are looking forward to welcoming even more guests to help create Offaly's longest afternoon tea table once again.
"The response to last year's event was simply incredible. It showed the generosity and community spirit that Offaly is known for. We are delighted to bring the event back for a second year and hope even more people will join us. Every booking helps support the wonderful work of Offaly Hospice, while creating a truly special Vintage Week experience for everyone involved." – said Barry Kennedy, General Manager at County Arms.
Offaly Hospice provides compassionate care and support to patients and families throughout the county, making this event an opportunity not only to enjoy one of the highlights of Vintage Week but also to give back to a charity that means so much to the local community.
Whether gathering with family, catching up with friends or meeting new faces around one spectacular table, guests can look forward to an afternoon of elegant dining, laughter and shared memories—all while making a meaningful difference.
With last year's event proving extremely popular, early booking is strongly recommended.
