Where is the Marquee? Last year the Marquee moved across the road and it will continue from that site again this year. You can find the venue on the former Tedcastle's Yard on Centre Park Road. This is the second of at least three summers at the new location. Construction is underway on the old site, with more than 1,000 apartments being built in the area. How do I get to the Marquee? Joe Bonamassa will play three nights at Live at the Marquee Cork as a special celebration of the legendary Rory Gallagher . Picture: Mark Stedman Live at the Marquee is about a seven-minute drive from the city centre in low traffic conditions. Walking, it will take about 30 minutes from the city, or 15 minutes from Ballintemple. If coming from the city, Centre Park Road is the first turn on the left at the Albert Road roundabout and continue along the road until you spot the distinctive yellow and blue tent. What times do Marquee gigs start and finish? Gates to the venue open at 6.30pm. Start times can vary, depending on the gig, but many of the main acts seem to take to the stage between 8.30pm and 9pm, and their sets usually finish by 10.30pm. What about parking? Car parking at Live At The Marquee, Cork. Picture: Eddie O'Hare Parking in the area is limited, but the current location has 300 car park spaces which can be booked on for €12 per car - up from €9 last year – plus €2.20 service fee.
