Matter of convenience – bar to get toilets after all
Pubs and restaurants criticised the decision to allow the Tron Kirk’s pop-up bar – at which drinks brand Drambuie is to host its Festival of the Extraordinary – to open without any toilets.
Fears were expressed that revellers, who would have to use the Hunter Square public toilets, would have had to resort to using facilities elsewhere.

Hide AdA spokesman for venue operator Dunedin Inns and Drambuie said the public toilets, which are being leased from the city council, were used for a pop-up bar at the Festival in August without incident.
The spokesman added: “During Hogmanay, Dunedin Inns will once again use the Hunter Square toilet facilities.
“These will be supervised by venue security and facilities staff.”
