Sold-out open-air street feast in Cork cancelled over Euro 2016 clash

Diners who forked out €50 for a sold-out open-air street feast in Cork City have cried foul after a clash with the Euros forced the cancellation of their dinner plans.

Organisers of the Our Table event on Oliver Plunkett St said they are “deeply disappointed” to have to pull the plug on the event.

Cork Midsummer Festival confirmed yesterday that everyone who bought a ticket for the June 26 dinner date will be fully refunded. It is understood that its clash with Euro 2016 games — thousands of fans are expected in city pubs that evening — was among the key reasons for the cancellation.
