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.

Obviously, we never know what a band are going to play until the night itself, but here is a taster of what fans can expect, based on the setlist for their recent concert at The OVO Hydro in Glasgow, Scotland, on Thursday night: Same Old Song Flowers in Your Hair Asshole Advertisement Charlie Boy Ho Hey Angela You're All I Got A.M. RADIO Plasticine Donna Dead Sea Ativan Slow It Down BRIGHTSIDE Sleep on the Floor Scotland Gloria WHERE WE ARE Strings Automatic Ophelia Salt and the Sea Leader of the Landslide April REPRISE This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody) (Talking Heads cover) Big Parade Encore: Cleopatra Stubborn Love 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. The promoter deems that large outdoor concerts are not a suitable environment for children under five, and all attendees must have a ticket. 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. 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? Saturday is expected to be mostly dry early on, with a bit of rain early in the afternoon. After that though, there should be sunny spells and scattered showers with highs of 17 to 20 degrees with some wind. 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.

The Lumineers, Glasgow review: 'manicured roots pop'

The Lumineers, Hydro, Glasgow ★★★ Lumineers founders Wesley Schultz and Jeremiah Fraites are celebrating 20 years of making music together, expanding to an instrument-swapping six-piece for this arena tour. This is new-ish, expansive territory for the Denver band but they've brought the cool multi-coloured lighting effects to embellish their manicured roots pop and wordless singalongs so beloved of TV soundtrack compilers. The Lumineers |They kicked off a bumper set of around 30 songs with the double drummer action of the prophetic Same Old Song, featuring forced vocals from frontman Schultz. If his voice was a little ragged, we later found out why: his younger brother Sam had just passed away and the entire show was dedicated to him. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad 'You gave me something to do with all this emotion,' Schultz told the crowd as he resurrected the cover of Talking Heads' This Must Be the Place (Naïve Melody) he played at his brother's wedding. His band members rallied in a group hug while the crowd waved their phone lights in an act of communal compassion. The band wasted no time in advancing to the end of their stage catwalk to connect with their people, while a slick small army of stagehands facilitated the changeovers. Flowers In Your Hair, side one track one of their debut album, demonstrated that the pop bluegrass template was always there, sterilised to sound like a US Mumford & Sons or Ed Sheeran when he's in Radio 2 mode. Most of the set followed a similar formula, taking in the simplistic chant of pop worksong Ho Hey and the shouty indie folk cabaret of Big Parade, with each band member taking their turn on vocals.
