Festivalgoers warned over second-hand tickets for Indiependence

Festivalgoers have been warned to act cautiously if buying tickets second-hand for this weekend’s Indiependence Music Festival which gets underway today.

The population of Mitchelstown, in North Cork, will nearly treble as 10,000 attendees are expected to descend on the Deer Farm location which will host the festival, a 20-minute walk from the town centre.

English singer-songwriter Tom Odell will headline tonight’s line-up, followed by main stage headliners The Coronas on Saturday, while Welsh rock stalwarts the Manic Street Preachers bring proceedings to a close on Sunday night.
