    Anyone heard any update on this?

    Current rumours are that it will be in either the Venue or Ebrington Square on either the 21st or 23rd December.

    Afaik the Venue holds about 2,000 and Ebrington holds the guts of 10,000. Tickets would sell out no problem so Ebrington would be the logical choice but perhaps they're worried about the weather.

    No more updates recently, just rumours at present.

    Also think the Venue holds 4,000 and the square about 15000.

    Still no official word on this and its getting close to the time it was meant to be on, I guess it looks like its not happening after all?

    It was in the paper a few weeks ago that it wasn't happening. There was discussions about it, but someone at the Council/CoC blabbed before it was finalised and it fell through. Shame really, there doesn't really seem to be any big send off for The Venue.
