00:00Organisers of the Fields of Aira Irish Music Festival say the event will still take place,
00:05but at a different venue. Liverpool City Council says it cannot issue a land use agreement for
00:11Newsham Park after discussions with safety partners, including police, fire and ambulance
00:17services. The council says concerns raised about the proposed event were not sufficiently addressed
00:24and public safety will not be compromised. Festival organisers say they have listened to
00:30feedback from ticket holders and have now moved the event to the Olympia Theatre on the 5th and 6th
00:36of June. They say the change keeps the festival in the same community and travel area for attendees
00:43this weekend.
