Live at the marquee cork

Will there be gigs in 2020 at live at the marquee Cork or have they lost the location now for development? Such a loss with the joke of the ongoing saga of events center.

Site was sold last year i understand, but nothing happening so far development wise.

Went under the radar, but a friend sent me a Christy Moore email, which was for some gig presales, and it listed his Marquee appearance for June 27th, but tickets have not gone onsale yet.

The Marquee has been very poor in the last few years, but thankfully rival promoter MCD are offering an alternative at Irish independant Park, which has a capacity of more than double the Marquee, 12,000 approx, they had 6 gigs there this year, and have announced the first of what i hope will be a few gigs there. Potential, for better acts at this venue due to the higher capacity.

Lewis Capaldi slated for II Park in June. No others announced for there yet

Shame.
I traveled down from Dublin to see ZZ Top (2013 & 2015) and Neil Young (2014).
Really enjoyed those trips.

While the current site won’t be available after next year, thats not to say Aikens won’t use an alternative site, though, it will be difficult to get one so close to the city centre.
