Telly favourites Love Island and Britain's Got Talent to the Glastonbury Festival will all be under threat if the country goes into coronavirus lockdown.
Ireland today announced plans to close schools and offices and ban all large public gatherings amid the deadly COVID-19 outbreak.
If the UK follows suit, it could wreak havoc across the world of entertainment.
As well as putting large festivals like Glastonbury, and Reading & Leeds at risk , it also endangers some of the UK's most popular TV shows.
Britain's Got Talent is due to hit screens in April, and although it could be filmed behind close doors, fans are used to seeing the acts perform in front of an audience.
This part of the show could be scrapped for all the live finals.
Love Island , which is due to return in the summer, could also be affected as it's filmed in Majorca.
Any possible European travel bans could have an impact on production as the cast and crew would need to jet to the Spanish island for filming.
If the UK follows Ireland by going into lockdown, major events will also be called off.
It could impact the National Film Awards later this month and the BAFTA TV Awards, which are due to take place in London on May 17.
It's already caused a number of film releases to be pushed back, including James Bond movie No Time To Die and the latest Peter Rabbit feature.
There are fears other big movies could follow, with the ninth Fast and Furious movie due for release in the coming weeks along with superhero blockbuster Black Widow.
Many artists are also due to play gigs in the UK in the coming weeks and there are fears that many shows will get cancelled.
The Pussycat Dolls are due at London's O2 Arena next month, along with Harry Styles, Snoop Dogg, Craig David and Simple Minds who are all due to play in the capital in the coming weeks.
During a press conference today, Prime Minister Boris Johnson confirmed major events are not yet being banned in England because scientific advice is it “will have little effect on the spread".
But he said that will be kept under review, because “there is also the issue of the burden such events can place on public services” .
With a decision yet to be made by the government, fans will just have to wait and see whether all these events are going to go ahead.
