LISTOWEL RECORD SHOP

Record Shop in Listowel

Plan a Listowel record-shop visit at The Kilmorna Collection: vinyl, coffee, art, Writers Week, Listowel Races and a useful excuse to stay in town.

The Kilmorna Collection is a record shop in Listowel with a coffee counter, art on the walls and enough vinyl to make a quick visit look suspiciously like an afternoon.

Start with the records, obviously. Then let the town do the rest: Writers Week, Listowel Races, Kerry Writers Museum, St John's Theatre, Listowel Castle, the Garden of Europe and the Greenway. Listowel is not short of reasons. It just needed somewhere with good sleeves.

Records, coffee, art and a useful excuse to stay in town

23 Church Street: Records in the middle of town.

Writers Week: Words nearby, naturally.

Listowel Races: September with a pulse.

The catalogue is tied to the shop, so the records online are not a decorative wishlist. You get cover images, price, format, genre and availability where stock is ready to buy. Practical, but still allowed to have taste.

Church Street puts the shop inside Listowel's walking rhythm: records, coffee, a look around the walls, then back out into the town before anyone accuses you of having a plan.

Kerry Writers Museum, St John's Theatre, Listowel Castle, the Garden of Europe and the Listowel to Limerick Greenway all sit neatly around a record-shop visit. Very convenient. Almost like the town planned ahead.

Writers Week gives the town its literary hum, and Listowel Races gives September its own engine. Kilmorna is the quieter room between the bigger noises.

Start at Kilmorna: Browse current vinyl, check the Irish and jazz shelves, or collect an order placed online. Try to pretend you came in for one record. It is good theatre.

Stay in the centre: Walk The Square, Church Street and the heritage streetscape before moving toward the writers and theatre landmarks. Listowel rewards wandering.

Add one cultural stop: Kerry Writers Museum, St John's Theatre or Listowel Castle keeps the visit rooted in the town rather than just the shop.

Leave time for coffee: The point is not to rush the room. Records, coffee and art are better when nobody is tapping a watch.

Can I browse vinyl in person in Listowel? Yes. The Kilmorna Collection is a physical record shop at 23 Church Street in Listowel, with the online catalogue there if you want to arrive pretending you are organised.

Can I order online and collect in Listowel? Yes, where checkout and collection are available on the product page. The record page is the sensible bit before the browsing becomes emotional.

What else can I do nearby? Listowel has Writers Week, Listowel Races, Kerry Writers Museum, St John's Theatre, Listowel Castle, the Garden of Europe and the Greenway. The record shop is not doing all the work alone.
