Daffodil Day 2026 in Tipperary: Communities Rally for Cancer Support

Communities across Tipperary are preparing for Daffodil Day on March 20, 2026, a key fundraising event for the Irish Cancer Society. Local groups in Tipperary and Cashel are actively organizing events to raise vital funds for cancer research, support services, and advocacy.

Tipperary Town Preparations

The Tipperary town committee is hosting a coffee morning and raffle on February 20, 2026, from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM at the Community Centre. This event aims to raise funds to purchase Irish Cancer Society merchandise that will be available on Daffodil Day. Last year, the Tipperary town initiative raised €1,200 at the coffee morning and a total of €21,000 on Daffodil Day itself. Volunteers are being sought to staff tables in Tipperary town on March 20th, and donations of fresh daffodils are welcome on March 19th.

Cashel and Surrounding Areas Mobilize

In Cashel, the local Daffodil Day committee is launching its program on February 20, 2026, at 3:30 PM in Foleys on Friar Street. The Cashel group similarly coordinates events in Rosegreen, Golden, New Inn, Knockavilla, and Dundrum. This committee raised an impressive €45,000 last year. Like the Tipperary town group, they will also be accepting donations of fresh daffodils closer to Daffodil Day.

National Impact and Support

Daffodil Day is a national event, and all funds raised contribute to the Irish Cancer Society’s work. Individuals can also display their support by adding a message to a virtual daffodil through the Garden of Hope initiative, where messages are displayed at the Irish Cancer Society headquarters in Dublin.

How to Get Involved

Residents of Tipperary are encouraged to participate in local events, volunteer their time, or donate fresh daffodils to support the Irish Cancer Society. Further information and updates can be found through local news outlets like Tipperary Live and Tipp Midwest Radio.
