  • Statement on the holding of events at Ebrington Square

    Topics:
    • Strategic Investment and Regeneration

    Date published: 8 August 2023

    The Executive Office (TEO) is aware that the intention to hold dance music events at Ebrington Square during August 2023 has caused a level of controversy.

    TEO has taken on board the expressions of concern as to the arrangements in place surrounding the hosting of these events.

    While the events scheduled to take place in August 2023 will take place as scheduled, subject to all necessary satisfactory arrangements being in place, TEO has identified and agreed to embrace further checks and balances in its own process.

    It is hoped that the holding of such future events has the full support of all sections of the local community.
