The festive season is well and truly upon us as tickets for Dublin Castle's annual Christmas market went on sale this morning.
Christmas at the Castle is set to take place from Friday, December 9 until December 21 at Dublin Castle in the city centre. However, several people were left disappointed as they struggled to buy the tickets.
Some of the slots were already sold out but others were marked as "unavailable" as people rushed to buy the tickets. Dublin Live reader Anna said: "I really wanted to go this year but I refreshed the website and all the tickets were gone in the blink of an eye." Another person said on Twitter: "Got my tickets this morning to The Christmas Markets in Dublin Castle swear I was going to a concert.
