Live at the Marquee returns to Cork this summer after a two-year absence due to Covid-19.

This year will bring a mix of music, comedy and performance, kicking off with the Coronas later this month.

"After an absence of 2 years, Live at the Marquee Cork is back with a bang this summer kicking off on 27 May when The Coronas take to the stage," Aiken Promotions tweeted.
