“We’re delighted to be running a big, outdoor gig in Limerick for the first time,” enthuses promoter Peter Aiken. “The new Thomond Park is a really spectacular venue, which can comfortably hold 25,000 people. We’ve staged all of Elton’s recent Irish gigs from Stormont Castle to Croke Park, and he always puts on a spectacular show.”
