Commenting today, Tim Ryan, Operations Manager at Dún Laoghaire Harbour Company said: "One of our key responsibilities in Dún Laoghaire Harbour Company is to maintain and enhance the recreational value of the Harbour. The drive-in cinema was a huge success over the St. Patrick's bank holiday weekend and bringing it back to the Harbour has been an exciting undertaking for us. It will undoubtedly deliver some spin-off benefits to the town. The Harbour has such potential as a tourism destination and we anticipate a great level of activity over the course of the autumn."
