As fears over the Coronavirus spread worldwide, it's no surprise that country music's biggest festival in Ireland, the C2C Festival, has been postponed.

Luke Combs, Eric Church and Darius Rucker are the headliners for the remaining C2C (Country2Country) Festival shows.

The government had issued a directive to cancel any show with an indoor capacity greater than 100 people.

The ban lasts through March 29. No new C2C Dublin dates have been announced.

At this time, there's been no official news about corresponding shows in London or Glasgow.
