The chair of Listowel race company is calling for the number of spectators allowed at race meetings to increase ahead of the Listowel harvest festival.
Both the Football and Hurling All-Ireland finals will see crowds of 40,000 in Croke Park, while 25,000 fans will be at the Aviva Stadium for Irelands World Cup Qualifiers.
However, as things stand, Listowel races would only be allowed to admit 500 spectators per day.
