The Spring Farm Machinery Show taking place in Millstreet in Cork on Thursday will finish early due to storm Éowyn, due to track across the country in the early hours of Friday morning.

The show, running at Millstreet Green Glens Arena, was due to run across two days starting on Wednesday.

It was due to finish at 10pm, but will now finish at 6pm.
