Lovely job with the recommendations for tourist activities.

I found this from 5 days ago.

http://m.independent.ie/irish-news/garth-brooks-train-tickets-arrive-before-gigs-get-goahead-30255664.html

Application went in for the Garth Brooks concerts licenses on April the 17th and those wishing to object have until May 21st. Less than 30 submissions went into the DCC objecting to the Garth Brooks concerts with the croke park residents committies objections due in yesterday.

how many objections do they need?

How many objections do they need for the licenses not to be granted, is it?

I wouldn't know.

Under 30 in four weeks is fairly pitiful. The committee gangs would have added to the number though.

i agree, considering the amount of posters i saw while walking to croke park, i thought there would be more. might be jinking that now

From my reading and understanding there are two croke park committees:
The croke park streets committee
The croke park residents association.

One of those is representing 500 people or households.

My understanding is that there are 31000 households surrounding croke park.

Hi All,

Can anyone tell me do all pitch tickets enter at the same location?

Yeah, afaik. Same general area.

But two people could be entering at different turnstiles? Like if I bought two tickets off two different people?

Well the turnstiles are right next to each other. So you walk through and see the person you are with on the other side. I doubt you'd be held to go in a certain turnstile, it's the area that matters

I have reserved a House which is about 5 minutes walking distance from Croke Park, for Friday & Saturday nights. It is really a gorgeous place, with 7 bedrooms, so plenty of space for quite a number of Garth fans.

I am seeking as many individuals/couples as possible, which will result in the price per person being insanely low. The rate on the full house was $310/night, which means if all 7 rooms get taken, the price could be as low as $44/night per room.

I will gladly provide more details to anybody interested, and can even send a link to the home's listing on Airbnb, which is where I booked through. Trust me, if you want to stay in the Croke Park area for the Friday & Saturday nights, you will not find anything reasonable, let alone a potential deal this good.

Please send me b]MOD EDIT: Snipping email address - please contact via PM[/b if interested. I am coming from California, U.S., and hope to fill this house with Garth concert goers from anywhere in the world who are coming to Dublin for one or more of his shows. Thanks for your attention to this post.

I also have rooms that my friends pulled out of in the Ashling hotel for the Friday night and also a two night booking for the Friday and Saturday if anyone is interested. The hotel is booked out and is really Central and I'll let them go for a lot cheaper than the Ashling was asking for before they sold out.
PM me if your interested.

Just ordered my ticket from ticketmaster site. Must've made more available if anyone's still looking. So that's me set with pitch for Sunday.

Just hope now it's not a mistake and they send me a cancellation mail

That's great news Sunbabe.

Today is the last day for objections. I suppose we'll know sometime after this on the subject of licenses. I hope it goes well. For all 5 nights.

So, are we good to go?

It was never in any doubt. I hope your Mam enjoys herself. I'm taking mine to Christy Moore in Killarney on Saturday for her birthday. He's another fantastic musician

I've been checking the news regularly but there's no information on the Garth Brooks concert licenses yet.

How are you and some others so sure? There's been a sh1tstorm going down in relation to some of the residents.

Would you stop. Yes they kicked up a fuss but there is no way any gig will be cancelled. They will be given money or something. People sensationalising this is beyond ridiculous.

Ah there's no worry, never was.

This is just like saying only certain ticketmaster outlets would do tickets..
A non runner and overlysensational..

Gig 100% happening. Security been given details of their times of in past week.

The residents complaining were only a hundred or so people.

Means nothing to you, it is for security and event safety. They know how many people will be on the pitch. Also protects your tickets from being copied
