TITANIC COMMEMORATION WED 11TH APRIL

The Commodore Hotel, formerly known in 1912 as The Queens Hotel and probably where some passengers stayed before they boarded the tenders in Queenstown for Titanic, is the only operating Cobh hotel in 2012 from that time.
So, it is only fitting that todays residents, employees and their families will join with hotel owner Patrick O'Shea in front of the Hotel at 1.45pm Wednesday 11th April to commemorate the 123 passengers that left Queenstown that date 100 years ago.
123 balloons will be released at 1.55pm the same time Titanic set sail from Cork Harbour.
The Commodore Male Voice Choir will also be in attendance and will perform a fitting tribute.
Why not join us?
