Londonderry: Concerns raised over tennis court music event

Ms Doherty has said she is concerned that if this particular concert goes ahead, it will mean “more promoters will see the tennis courts as a venue” and future events potentially being staged there.

“I don’t want to make anybody’s livelihoods any harder, I can see the wider picture for bringing business into the city, keeping the city as a thriving tourism destination and having a wide range of events,” she said.

“Our city is brilliant at putting on that sort of thing and I’m all for it, but I’m just not convinced the tennis courts are the right place for it.

“I just think it’s sending out the wrong message.”

In a statement, the police have said they are aware of proposed plans for this event.

“The priority for police when any public event is held, and which draws large numbers of people, is to keep everyone safe,” they said.

“To that end, we will continue to work with partners and other relevant stakeholders.”

BBC News NI has also contacted the council for a statement.
