Out now! Pick up the latest edition of Limerick Life magazine

AS SUMMER winds down and autumn begins to settle in, the latest edition of Limerick Life is here, packed with inspiring local stories, familiar faces and plenty of ideas to enjoy as we move into a new season.

The August/September edition brings together a mix of fashion, food, business, lifestyle and entertainment, shining a spotlight on some of the people and stories making an impact across Limerick. Whether you’re looking for autumn inspiration, planning a wardrobe refresh or simply taking some time to sit back and enjoy a good read, there is plenty to discover throughout the latest issue.

In our feature interview, we meet Limerick entrepreneur Jimmy Lynch, whose career has taken an unexpected but hugely successful turn. After once working in the packaging of Dell computers, Jimmy has gone on to build a flourishing makeup and skincare business. He also tackles one of beauty’s most frequently asked questions - should SPF be applied before or after moisturiser?

We also meet Sean Leddin of Fíor Jewellery, who shares the remarkable story behind his thriving Irish brand. Now serving more than 50,000 customers worldwide, Sean looks back on how the business began as a true cottage industry, hand-posting jewellery from his home in envelopes bought in Mr Price. His story is a wonderful reminder of what can be achieved with determination, creativity and a great idea.

Food lovers can enjoy a taste of Bunratty Manor as Head Chef Gary McGorrian shares one of his favourite recipes for readers to recreate at home.

We also capture the fantastic atmosphere at Thomond Park as Scottish singer-songwriter Lewis Capaldi returned to Limerick to serenade fans with some of his best-loved hits, including Someone You Loved.

Fresh from being crowned Miss Universe Ireland 2026, Aideen Howard gives us a peek inside her handbag, while our fashion pages are packed with practical inspiration and style ideas to help your wardrobe make the transition from late summer into autumn.

And, of course, our Calendar guide rounds up some of the best events, gigs and happenings taking place across Limerick city and county throughout August and September, ensuring there is plenty to see and do as the new season gets underway.

Alongside our interviews and features, there is plenty more to enjoy throughout this edition, with something for everyone to discover.
