Was just wondering if anyone could give me information at live at the marquee, Like what are the transport links like and best hotel to stay in if i was to go.
Trying to find information about it online is practically impossible!
Is it all seating? How big is the venue? Is it indoor or outdoor?
Want to get information before i buy tickets you know!
I NEED HELP!!
if you search the Cork City forum you should find info from previous years.
Transport links - from where? It's a 10-15 minute walk from the city centre add time for a stop in a pub along the way
Bear in mind the walk back into town along the marina tends to be dark and the foot paths can be a bit broken up in parts, comfy shoes are a good idea.
Since it is so close to the city any hotel will be decent, the closest though is probably the Clarion Hotel.
It's indoor, well it's in a tent/marquee.
For normal music gigs there is a mix of seated tickets and standing.0 -

yes, taxis will be available outside the venue, mind you the traffic can be heavy getting out (the car park is busy too) and often you're quicker walking.
Seated areas are fairly good, try to get the seated area in front of the stage (as opposed to the seats to the left and right of the stage - the standing area is in the middle).
Sound can be hit and miss, a gig in a tent is never going to be top notch for sound but you should be fine, depends on the artist's sound crew also.
For example at The National last year I found the sound to be very good when the band were playing but when Matt was talking to the crowd I couldn't make out one word he was saying...and no, I wasn't drunk
Go ahead and book those tickets, something to look forward to!0 -
