Do you have any outdoor plans this bank holiday weekend?

Festivals, concerts and outdoor events are taking place across the country this weekend.

THE BANK HOLIDAY weekend is packed with festivals, concerts and outdoor events across the country.

In Dublin, CMAT takes over St Anne’s Park tonight, while Forbidden Fruit music festival returns to Kilmainham this weekend, and Bloom is on in the Phoenix Park.

The Rory Gallagher International Festival in Donegal and the Wexford Maritime Festival are both on, and Cork has a particularly busy weekend with the Cork Harbour Festival, Kinsale Trad Fest, Blackwater Valley Opera Festival and the Cork City Marathon getting underway.

The weather isn’t looking as balmy as the last few days. Met Éireann says the long weekend ahead will bring a mix of sunshine, showers, and some longer spells of rain at times as cooler Atlantic weather returns after several days of heat.

So, today we’re asking: Do you have any outdoor plans this bank holiday weekend?
