There'll be no scenes like this at Pearse Stadium in 2019.

There'll be no repeat of the Ed Sheeran gig we saw at Pearse Stadium last year, unless Galway GAA receives a bigger slice of the pie, reports the Connacht Tribune.

Speaking to The Tribune County Galway GAA Treasurer Michael Burke said Pearse Stadium is unlikely to host a major concert in 2019, “unless there is a good payday for the GAA”.

Galway GAA received a modest €119,085 return from the two Ed Sheeran concerts in May.

In contrast to the near €1 million figure reportedly received by the Cork County Board from the Sheeran concerts in Páirc Uí Chaoimh.

Mr Burke said that at this point in time, he does not foresee a concert being held at Pearse Stadium in 2019.
