Festivals claim they'll lose thousands as a result.

The Enterprise Minister is 'concerned' about a possible gap in regulatory environment, following the liquidation of a ticketing platform.

It comes as Tickets.ie has ceased trading, with its parent company Oshi Software Limited preparing to enter liquidation.

Longford Westmeath TD Peter Burke believes maximum protection is needed where client money is being held.

Cowboys and Heroes country music festival says they have lost €135,000 while The Rory Gallagher International Festival says they have lost €283,000.

Minister Burke says he's working to find more information on the situation:
