Tuam music festival ticket sales are well ahead on last year

TICKET sales for what is set to be one of the biggest outdoor music festivals in the West of Ireland this summer are well ahead compared to last year – which ended in a sell-out success.
SugarBeat in Tuam Stadium is running for two days this year because of the early demand for tickets and the huge enthusiasm for the event.
Crowds of over 5,000 people are expected to converge in the town over the weekend August 22 and 23, bringing a welcome end-of-summer economic boost to traders, hoteliers, restaurants and publicans.
Festival Director Shane Donnellan says the absence of the Westport music festival this year has added to the appetite for a live music event in the region
