Bruce Springsteen & Ed Sheeran are also, reportedly, planning marquee events in Ireland in 2022.

Garth Brooks is reportedly close to agreeing a deal for three gigs in Dublin next September.

Talks are said to be at an 'advanced stage' for the megastar to play Croke Park.

Seven years since the infamous "five in a row fiasco", the country legend could be making a return to Irelandhttps://t.co/P7luHQl2zr

"It looks as though Garth Brooks is on his way back to Ireland, with those dates rumoured to be the 9th, 10th and 11th of September next year.

However it remains to be seen if there's another rush for tickets, as it's now seven years after the infamous 'five in a row fiasco.'

Garth Brooks' comeback tour in 2014 originally included two nights at Croke Park that July.

That quickly became three nights, and then five as 400,000 tickets sold.

But that was halted quickly with Dublin City Council refusing a license for two of those five gigs.

Garth Brooks hit back saying it was five or nothing, and nothing it was.

Virgin Media's also reporting that Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band are being earmarked for Croke Park in April.

While 'other venues' around the country are reportedly being looked at for a possible Ed Sheeran gig too."
