Woman settles €60k compo claim over Disney on Ice show at Citywest

A housewife, who slipped and fell at the “Disney on Ice” show at Citywest Hotel two years ago, has settled a €60,000 personal injuries claim she brought against the organisers.

Lawyers for Lavina McKenna of Navan Road, Dublin, told Judge Terence O’Sullivan in the Circuit Civil Court that the case had been settled following talks and could be struck out.

The amount of the settlement was not disclosed in open court.

Ms McKenna (31) had claimed that she was walking to her seat when she hit her forehead against multiple steps.

McKenna claimed she had also injured her right ankle and later suffered pain in her head and dizziness.

She sued the owners of Citywest Hotel, the promoters as well as firms who set up the seating and stairs areas.

Judge O’Sullivan, on foot of the undisclosed settlement agreement, struck out the proceedings against all defendants.
