Minister for Culture Catherine Martin has suggested that pilot arts events may go ahead indoors and outdoors as early as next month.
Ms Martin said she was ambitious for arts events to get going as soon as it was safe to do so as performers had been deprived of an opportunity to make a living since the start of the pandemic in March last year.
The Minister has been in contact with Festival Republic which ran a successful pilot outdoor event at Sefton Park in Liverpool on May 2nd.
