Waterford’s annual festival Winterval is back – and it’s a magical wonderland.
The opening weekend saw over 120,000 flood the city for the festival, now in it’s fifth year.
Mayor Adam Wyse was joined by the man himself, Santa, as they travelled down the new Waterford Greenway on Harley Davidsons, followed by 20 Grinches on bicycles.
