Speaking to reporters while welcoming the reopening of Ireland’s National Cultural Institutions on Monday, she said:"I think July latest, but I would be more ambitious than that and I would like to see some live music events, test events, take place in June.Martin added that the events will initially begin as outdoor events before the implementation of indoor concerts can make a return.
She said that Festival Republic has submitted a proposal and she is now consulting with the Government and health officials about the possibility of the event pilots.
