Colm Boohig

Fantastic news for Irish football fans heading to Body & Soul.

Ireland’s crucial Euro 2016 match against Belgium will be screened live at the Body & Soul festival on Saturday at 2pm in Ballinlough, Co Westmeath.

A petition, which proved to be overwhelmingly popular with those attending the festival, had been started earlier in the week, and now organisers have confirmed the news.

Body & Soul will team up with RTÉ and the game will be screened at the Midnight Circus Arena, with coverage commencing at 1pm.

The Midnight Circus Arena has a capacity of 3,000 and entry will work on a first come, first served basis.
