Organisers behind the Killarney Festival of Music and Food have said that they are still working on having an indoor concert this weekend.
They announced earlier that, due to unforeseen circumstances, the festival itself had been called off.

Duran Duran, The Stunning, Texas and Jools Holland were among the high profile names on the line up.
Stuart Clarke of Hotpress has said that the local economy will suffer from the decision to pull the plug on the event.
"The promoter is saying that they’re having discussions with some of the bands with regards to putting together a severely scaled down indoor bill somewhere in Killarney, in some of the venues available locally," said Mr Clarke.
"I can't imagine that that could potentially be more than a couple of thousand people. It's very disappointing for the fans, and the bands and of course the local business people who stood to make a lot of money from this event."
