It’s the 3Olympia
I don't believe thats the case at all. Its a “naming” fixed term 8 years partnership contract, rather than an ownership change, similar to 3arena, included in 3 branding and advertising, presales etc, so would still be owned by whoever owned it prior to the deal, eg MCD or someone connected to MCD
It was an attempted joke, and if I had of put all that in, it would have been even less funny...
John Grant’s gig at St Canice’s Cathedral in Kilkenny has been rescheduled to November 27th.
I've decided to go to Burgess tomorrow in Whelans.
Apparently, I'm entitled to a full refund if I wish (as it was rescheduled and rescheduled again).
I bought two tickets so I have asked for a refund for one (the person due to go with me can't make it).
I'm currently waiting 3 weeks on a previous query from TM (and there doesn't appear to be a phone number to talk to someone about it all) so if there's anyone here that would like a ticket for face value for 6pm tomorrow, pm me.
If not, hopefully someone will come back to me with the refund on the ticket.
Paul Weller has cancelled gigs in Dublin and Galway

Says in this article
'As the moment, current guidelines mean that concerts can take place indoors as long as they are seated.'
Should we be worrying for other gigs around the time these were suppose to take place ? Are places not set to fully reopen from Oct 22nd
Up north they haven't been given a proper reopening of events/gigs like we have.
I had to request a refund three separate times for this gig, finally got email confirming refund this morning - first times was auto response saying "event has not been changed". Friend having the same crap despite requesting refund on 23 Sep, they've emailed customer.services @ ticketmaster . ie to try and sort it out.

Whats the turnaround time for Ticket Sheister to return the funds...or is it how long is a piece of string and I might get it by Christmas 2025
All 6 of his Ireland gigs now rescheduled:

Have tickets for rescheduled Little Mix next April. Do you think they could reduce numbers and offer refunds as a lot of audience would be unvaccinated under 12s? Also standing tickets have been sold. Probably a bit early to guess if there will be some restrictions. We have a wedding on the date 🥺
Highly unlikely as gigs are full steam ahead from a couple of weeks time.
You could always try to sell them through ticketmaster and cover most of the value of your tickets.
Will venues be going 100% cashless ?
Revolut comes in handy in that regard
No chance of that. A lot of people still use cash and cash alone when out.
Some will and others already have. Aviva Stadium bars, food units are cashless now. When you have lot of units selling there can be a lot of cash on site which has its risks and some businesses want to reduce that risk so will go cashless as result
Of course there are cashless bars in various venues but they'll never be 100% cashless and I'm not aware of any venue, certainly any major ones they have eradicated cash altogether, it'd be a very silly business decision.
theres already festivals that do it, download i think went fully cashless
Some festivals already are and more will go that way. You may think its very silly business decision but it reduces potential loss, security issues, and few other issues that come up with having significant amount of cash on site
Plus if you look at banks who are now starting to close branches shows we are on the way to a more cashless society.
This was already happening to a certain extent, pre pandemic, it has now rapidly accelerated, and will become the norm.
Apart from security issues, there are also additional costs in dealing with cash, cash collections for delivery of lodgements to banks, are not free, (eg G4S)and lodgements are charged, per note. Buisinesses don’t have to keep floats and organise coin collections for change, and count all the cash, therefore, there are also additional staff costs in managing all of this.
Cashless makes a lot of sense, allthough i see it starting in the bigger venues first. This has already happened in several large venues in the UK.
Arena in Birmingham i was in last month was all cashless
Some friends in London told me the O2 London venue, has been cashless for a while,- once inside the venue arena, and other London venues as well
Hard to believe we're going backwards and the reopening due for the 22nd might not be taking place. So so frustrating
Sadly think the option of allowing places reopening fully but require Covid passes will not come to fruition. Let's hope Minster Martin pushes for reopening no matter what
Stop making things up.
Wish I was
But you are, you are literally making this up, not for the first time either.
