Venues who don't comply could face closure, a fine of up to 5,000 euro, and one year in prison.

New ticketing rules for nightclubs and late bars begin today - only hours after they were published.

All customers must buy a ticket at least an hour before, and keep a social-distance of one-metre while queuing for a drink.


Venues who don't comply could face closure, a fine of up to 5,000 euro, and one year in prison.

Director of the Factory Night Club in Waterford, Neill Kelly, says the guidelines make no sense.

Neill Kelly says the government's guidelines are 'absolute insanity'.
