A Tipperary Town music festival banner hangs outside The Porter House
For the past two years the Tipperary Festival Committee held their annual music festival in the Lidl car park in Tipperary Town.
The committee really appreciate the company for facilitating them in the past. However, due to the ongoing road construction Lidl were unable to offer their car park as a venue this year.
The committee looked at various options but unfortunately some of them were not suitable due to uneven surfaces and other difficulties.

Martin Quinn told the Tipperary Star that Eamonn Ryan from the Porter House came forward to say that if a venue couldn't be provided for the festival that he would carry out major works on land near the old SuperValu building, and would provide the venue free of charge.
The field was completely overgrown and needed a large investment on his part to level the area and make it suitable as a venue to house the festival.
Eamonn also agreed to transfer his pub licence 'free of charge' to the marquee for the duration of the festival.
The committee consider this to be a very valuable asset to the music festival and is the main reason that the music festival can proceed this year.
They wish to sincerely thank Eamonn and his staff along with the businesses and individuals that have contributed towards the costs of running the festival, and to those that are helping in so many other ways.
The music festival has attracted huge crowds in the past and this year should be no exception.
Further to the above, Tipperary Music Festival are delighted to announce that Arrabawn Tipperary Co op are the corporate sponsors once again for this year's festival of excellent music from Thursday May 8th to Sunday May 11th inclusive.
Arrabawn Tipperary Co op are delighted to once again be the corporate sponsors for this great event.
Tickets for the festival are available from tipperarytown.ie and from 0878253139.
