Clare County Council has expressed its disappointment at the cancellation of Inis Fest.
The three-day music festival was due to be held at Tim Smythe Park in Ennis in June, but has been called off in light of the concerns of people living near the venue.
Inis Fest organisers Impresario Events announced the cancellation of the event on Friday night, saying the "ongoing concerns of residents" need to be addressed before the festival could take place.
Two public meetings have been held in recent weeks between organisers and residents living near the Fair Green, who had expressed concerns that it could lead to a spike in anti-social behaviour.
The three-day event was set to attract a total audience of 9,000, generating an estimated 1.5 million euro boost for the local economy and raising funds for local charities.
In a statement last night, Clare County Council expressed disappointment that the event is not going ahead.
The local authority says it's satisfied the organisers had the "capability and capacity" to professionally stage it, and that its Event Management Plan was a "robust template."
The Council also says it's fully committed to supporting any initiative that aims to attract festivals and events to Ennis.
