40,000 people are expected to flock to the streets of Dublin for tonight's New Year's Festival.
The event, which hasn't taken place in three years due to the Covid-19 pandemic, also features a brand-new Festival Village.
Acts such as Westlife, Gavin James and Lyra will take to the stage for the nighttime show at North Wall Quay from 8pm.
Mullingar's Bressie, who's set to perform with bandmates The Blizzards later, says many people have missed the festival:
