The 2 Johnnies Pints in a Field 3: Everything you need to know

The 2 Johnnies launched Pints in a Field 3 on the back of a Number One album, their fourth consecutive sold-out 3 Arena show and some amazing press reviews for their TV show Late Night Lock In. The third rendition of the show will bring The 2 Johnnies and The Junior B All Stars with special guests Vengaboys, Basshunter and many more, with music, comedy and guest appearances expected. Advertisement So, if you are headed to St Anne's Park for some Pints in a Field on Saturday, keep reading to find out everything you need to know. When and where is it on? The 2 Johnnies will take over St Anne's Park, Clontarf, Dublin on Saturday, June 7th 2025, for Pints in a Field 3, with doors opening at 5pm. When we get the official stage times, we will update this article with them. Are there tickets left? There are some tickets still available on so if you're interested in going, you can get them now. Concertgoers are advised to buy tickets from accredited sources only. Who are playing? The 2 Johnnies will of course perform, as will special guests the Vengaboys, Basshunter, Jimmy Buckley, Noel Furlong, and more. When should I arrive? Allow at least an extra two hours travel time to and from the venue. That means, allow two hours on top of the time Google Maps is telling you it will take. Advertisement When you get to either of the two entrances, you will have to walk an extra roughly 1.3km from the park entrance to the ticket scan/entry. There are two entrances: The green entrance is on Sybil Hill onto the main avenue, and the Blue entrance is on All Saints Road via Tennis Court entry. There is no entry or exit on Mount Prospect Avenue. St Anne's Park is a residential area – organisers have appealed to all concertgoers to respect the local community by not littering, engaging in antisocial behaviour or parking illegally. Advertisement How do I get there and home again? Plan and book your travel arrangements in advance, allowing at least an extra two hours travel time to and from the venue. As traffic delays are inevitable, fans are encouraged by promoters to walk, cycle, use public transport and private coach services. By DART: The nearest DART station is Harmonstown Dart Station and they will run services to and from the concerts each day. By car: There is no public parking at the event, and car parks in St Anne's are not open to the public during events, so promoters have asked fans to use public transport and not to park illegaly or in residential areas as clamping will be in operation. By bus: You can get Dublin Bus No 6, H1, H2, and H3 to the venue from Abbey Street Lower. Marathon Coaches are also running return buses to and from the City Centre to St Anne's Park for the concert. Buses leave from Northwall Quay Bus Stop 7623 at 3pm, 4pm and 5pm on the day of the concert and drop off at St Paul's School, Clontarf. Return buses will be leaving the coach park at 11pm sharp. What's the story with security? Under-16s attending the concert must be accompanied at all times by an adult over 25. Unaccompanied under-16s will be refused entry without refund. Pints in a Field is a strictly 14 years and older event. No queuing is allowed prior to the gates opening, and attendees are advised to allow time for security checks on the way in. If you do turn up early, you will be turned away at restricted area points around the event site. Regardless, you should aim to be within the venue 30 minutes before the show starts. Advertisement Bags larger than A4 size will not be permitted. All bags may be searched, and this can be time-consuming, so consider going bagless for easier entry. There will be no cloakroom or storage facilities. No alcohol or food is allowed into the arena. Other banned items at the event include – but are not exclusive to – umbrellas, garden furniture, camping chairs, e-scooters, e-bikes, selfie sticks, flares, glasses or cans. There is also no re-admission to the concert, so if you leave, you cannot re-enter. Can I take photos at the concert? Smartphones and small digital cameras are permitted, but cameras with long or detachable lenses or recording equipment are not. GoPros and iPads are also prohibited. What's the weather giving? At the time of writing, rain and showers are expected a lot of Saturday, with temperatures ranging between 9 and 14 degrees. St Anne's Park is a standing-only venue, and all gigs take place outdoors on grass, so regardless of the forecast, dress accordingly for Irish weather – think wellies, boots or runners, layers, raincoats/ponchos and suncream. But remember, no umbrellas.

Pride of Britain launches with huge nationwide hunt for amazing unsung heroes

Pride of Britain is back and it's bigger than ever as it launches this year's nationwide search aboard P&O Cruises flagship Britannia. If you know someone who is the Pride of Britain, you can nominate them here… Pride of Britain is setting sail to look for 'Heroes ahoy!' in its biggest ever search for extraordinary people around the British Isles. The Daily Mirror Pride of Britain Awards with P&O Cruises have been celebrating unsung heroes young and old for 26 years. ‌ And today (Friday) co-hosts Carol Vorderman and Ashley Banjo will be welcoming some of 2024's winners aboard P&OC's flagship Britannia to launch the hunt for Pride of Britain's class of 2025. ‌ Carol, who has hosted every Pride of Britain since it began in 1999, is eager to see recent winners again. She says: 'When someone wins a Pride of Britain Award, they become part of the family, and I can't wait to catch up with some of our fabulous winners from last year.' Like the irrepressible bundle of fun Florrie Bark, who won a Child of Courage award for helping so many others while undergoing gruelling treatment for a rare form of leukaemia and waiting for a lung transplant. The eight-year-old TikTok sensation from Corby, Northants, had the nation smiling through their tears as she accepted her much-deserved Pride of Britain trophy in front of a host of famous faces at London's Grosvenor House last October, saying: 'This is for all the children with cancer who couldn't be here tonight.' And Jacob 'The Pilot' Newson, who lost his mum to breast cancer aged just seven, and was awarded Young Fundraiser of the Year, after the intrepid youngster trekked over mountains to raise hundreds of thousands for charity. The little boy, who loves planes and flying, captured the hearts of everyone as he told how he wanted to thank local hospice workers in Leeds who had cared for his late mum, saying: 'I just want to make Mummy happy in heaven.' ‌ They are just two of 2024's inspirational winners, who have gone above and beyond with their bravery and compassion for others – but we know there are many more amazing people out there. Now the Awards is launching its biggest ever search for the nation's unsung heroes – reaching every corner of the country, and covering every inch of the British coastline. ‌ Florrie and Jacob are part of a group of 2024 winners handing over the baton - in the form of an iconic Pride of Britain trophy, which they are delivering to Britannia today, as it embarks on a circumnavigation of Britain. Launching the history-making voyage, the 2024 winners will be catching up with Carol and Ashley before waving Britannia off to lead the search over land and sea around the British Isles. 'It's not just about finding out what they've been up to though,' adds Carol. 'They have the very important job of passing on the baton, and helping to launch our search for Pride of Britain's class of 2025.' ‌ Ashley hailed the fact anyone can nominate a hero for a Pride of Britain Award. 'One of the things that makes Pride of Britain so special, is that everyone gets the chance to tell us who they think should win – it's the ultimate people power,' says co-host Ashley. ‌ 'That's why we're making such a big noise about launching nominations. We want people in every corner of the country to tell us about the amazing unsung heroes in their communities.' It was nominations for outstanding members of the public that made sure last year's community hero winner Agnes Nisbett was recognised for her deeply personal work. Having experienced the trauma of stillbirth herself in 1973, when her tiny son was wrapped up and taken away from her, the now-retired midwife devoted her life to other grieving parents by founding the Born Whilst Sleeping programme at the Leicester Royal Infirmary, to give them time with their stillborn babies. ‌ 'I didn't want to let other women go through what I have,' said the pioneering nurse. Tearful actress Kym Marsh, who experienced a stillbirth herself, presented the trophy and thanked Agnes for, 'Turning her pain into her purpose". The selfless work of the Award winners can touch many people's lives, but sometimes an astonishing act of bravery will make the difference between life or death. ‌ Recognised for Outstanding Bravery last year, Emily Greenwood risked her own life to swim into icy winter seas in Cornwall to save a 10-year-old boy and a man ripped away by strong currents. At the Awards, Emily modestly said:'I just thought that I needed to help. I think most people would in that situation. We were all lucky. It could have ended very differently.' Guests and crew on the ship will be invited to nominate heroes, like Emily, onboard before the Britannia sets off around the coast, stopping off at key ports. A special nomination booth will also let the public nominate in cities across the country. ‌ The Pride of Britain team – along with some famous faces – will also scour the country in search of heroes, using every mode of transport, from bikes and trains to scooters and skateboards, to make sure no stone is left unturned. Other 2024 winners taking part today include Hetti Barkworth-Nanton, who with her best friend's mum Diana Parkes, set up a charity to support children impacted by domestic abuse. After Diana's daughter Joanna was killed by her husband Robert Brown in a horrifying attack within earshot of her young children, not only did she provide a home for her grandchildren, but together with Hetti, from Swindon, they set up the Joanna Simpson Foundation. ‌ Queen Camilla credited Diana's story as her inspiration for raising awareness about domestic violence, and Hetti warned: 'So often people don't know domestic abuse is happening to those they love.' The public's nominations really count and makes all the tireless campaigning work done by people like Michelle Tolley worth it. Michelle, from Norfolk, along with Jason Evans and Andy Evans, won a Special Recognition award for helping victims and relatives of the HIV and Hepatitis C blood scandal. ‌ 'The award feels like we've been heard by the people, and that's amazing,' said Michelle, who was infected with Hepatitis C, after receiving two transfusions following the birth of her children. Co-host Ashley says: 'Teaming up with some of last year's fabulous winners will also be a brilliant reminder of the courage, kindness, strength and empathy it takes to be a Pride of Britain winner. ‌ "I'm really looking forward to seeing them again, and kicking off the search for our 2025 winners.' The stars of the show are always the winners, but famous friends of the Awards will be getting involved too, sharing their own nominations and encouraging everyone else to do the same. 'We all feel a huge responsibility to make sure we do everything in our power to find the most extraordinary, inspirational winners, and this year will be our biggest search ever,' says Carol. ‌ She adds: 'The launch aboard Britannia is going to be a really exciting day, but it's just the start – watch this space.' Prepare to come aboard, people of Britain, because this time the Pride of Britain Awards will be arriving into the heart of your communities and welcoming nominations first hand. Our new look Pride of Britain has been bringing people together for 26 years. Over that time, core values of Bravery, Kindness, Love, Inspiration, Strength, Community and Empathy have become firmly established as the Awards DNA. ‌ Now, a stunning new visualisation of the Pride of Britain brand, which is set to be rolled out alongside a refreshed and reimagined logo, brings those values vividly to life. The new brand identity, developed with top creative agency BBD Perfect Storm, is being revealed alongside the official launch of nominations for the 2025 Daily Mirror Pride of Britain Awards with P&O Cruises. Each strand represents a core Pride Of Britain value that brings people together for these extraordinary awards, celebrating the very best in people and what they selflessly do for others. ‌ Pride Of Britain is the highest-rated Awards of its kind on British television, bringing some of the world 's most famous faces together to celebrate truly extraordinary achievements of people of all ages, from children of courage to lifesaving emergency workers, inspirational fundraisers and people who make the world a better place, in local communities and on a national or even global scale. Jason Foo, CEO at BBD Perfect Storm, said: 'It's been an honour to reimagine the visual identity of such an iconic and beloved event. The Pride of Britain Awards are rooted in values that speak to the very best of humanity – bravery, kindness, strength and community." The Daily Mirror Pride of Britain Awards with P&O Cruises, hosted by Carol Vorderman and Ashley Banjo will be screened in primetime on ITV1 in the Autumn. ‌ ‌ Award categories Do you know a remarkable person who makes the world a better place?
