Forbidden Fruit concert goers urged not to bring bags

Concert goers have been urged not to bring any backpacks or large bags to the Forbidden Fruit festival this weekend.

Organisers said on the Forbidden Fruit website that anyone planning to attend the event on Bank Holiday Monday should leave their bags at home.

Gardaí have been searching handbags and have urged people to make any extra rain jackets or clothing as compact as possible.

There are still a limited amount of tickets left for the final day of the festival in the Royal Hospital, Kilmainham, which are priced at €59.50.
