Ticketing glitch upsets Cork festival-goers

Concert-goers trying to buy tickets for the upcoming Sounds from a Safe Harbour (SFSH) Festival were frustrated in their efforts when a software problem cut the connection between the ticket system providers, SeatGeek, and the Cork Opera House booking system.
The problem arose on Monday and lasted for half an hour, during which time the queuing system was disrupted and tickets could not be purchased. Some of those in the queue at the time lost their place and had to rejoin the back of the queue.
