Cork events centre: ‘City can’t be held to ransom by contractors’, says publican

That’s the blunt message to BAM and Live Nation from publican Benny McCabe, the owner of some of Cork’s best-known pubs and clubs, two years on from the sod turning.
“I think the event centre will happen. I am confident it will happen. It simply has to happen. But the city and the Government can’t be held to ransom by contractors anymore in relation to funding for the project,” he said.
