LIVE Nation, the global entertainment giant that will run the long awaited €80m Cork Event Centre, are on the verge of appointing a design team to the project.

A source told the Irish Examiner that the team was “more or less selected” and that all that was needed was the final sign-off from corporate HQ in Los Angeles.
