Gelnica Concert by Kelly Family Draws Weak Ticket Sales Ahead of Scheduled Show
Share:
The eastern Slovak town of Gelnica is struggling to fill seats for an upcoming concert by the Kelly Family, the Irish-German musical group that became enormously popular across Central Europe in the 1990s. Ticket sales have been so slow that organizers have already moved the event from the town's stadium to the smaller amphitheater venue. It remains to be seen whether nostalgia for the band — whose folk-pop style made them a cultural phenomenon in Slovakia and neighboring countries during that decade — will be enough to draw crowds in time for the show.
