Tuesday 08 July 2014 16.27 All five Garth Brooks concerts planned to take place in Croke Park at the end of the month have been cancelled.
Aiken Promotions have said they have exhausted all avenues regarding the staging of the event.
Ticketmaster has said that they are working on a plan to make the ticket return process as simple as possible, and this will be outlined tomorrow.
An application to prevent three licensed Garth Brooks concerts from going ahead later this month was expected to be heard by the High Court on Thursday.
Local resident Brian Duff had brought an application against Aiken Promotions and Croke Park seeking an injunction to prevent the shows on 25, 26 and 27 July from taking place.
Mr Justice Paul Gilligan granted permission to lawyers for Mr Duff to bring the injunction application on Thursday morning.
Arts Minister Jimmy Deenihan has said that the cancellation of the concerts is an embarrassment for the country.
Speaking at Leinster House Mr Deenihan said it was a huge disappointment and a huge loss of business for the capital.
The minister reiterated that a whole new process for licensing concerts would have to be put in place so there could never be a repetition of what happened.
Mr Brooks had been expected to make a statement on the concerts at a press conference scheduled for Thursday.
The country music star issued an 'all-or-nothing' ultimatum last week after Dublin City Council refused a licence for him to perform two of his planned five-night run.
The Croke Park concerts were expected to be a precursor to a comeback world tour.
The Restaurants Association of Ireland has said that the decision has left the hospitality industry reeling, adding the "fiasco tarnishes Brand Ireland's image as a destination to host large international music, sporting and cultural events."
It had been estimated that the five concerts would have generated up to €50m in revenue, with the RAI saying the restaurant industry expected to take in €15m.
