Lack of hotel accommodation impacting concerts and events, musicians warnAn organisation representing the music industry has expressed concern about the shortage of hotel accommodation affecting attendance at concerts and events across Ireland. The association, which represents musicians, DJs, stage crew and others, said the cut in hotel availability means people wanting to attend concerts or other live entertainment events are unable to get accommodation. She added: "The escalating prices and scarcity of hotel accommodation in Ireland are discouraging music fans from attending concerts and events. We must ensure that access to live music and entertainment remains affordable and inclusive for everyone. “This message has since been repeated at various Fáilte Ireland industry events and again at the Irish Hotels Federation recent annual conference,” a spokeswoman for the agency told The Irish Times.
