'Live at Leopardstown' kicks off its fourth summer festival season this Friday 8th June with the addition of an all-weather Big Top and a new festival landscape.

June 14th sees the venue being transformed into a sea of green for the evening as it provides a full card of racing followed by the UEFA Euro 2012, Ireland vs. Spain match and a live concert at 9.45pm, all for €15.

The big match will be shown on the big screen in the Big Top followed by a performance by the Original Rude Boys. Fans that prefer a pub-type environment can also watch the match at one of the many bars and Pat Keogh, CEO of Leopardstown racecourse commented “The Big Top is a unique venue to watch the match and Live at Leopardstown is looking forward to supporting the boys in green in what promises to be a fantastic sporting occasion.”

Racing will commence at the earlier time of 4.55pm to accommodate the live match.

Acts who will headline the Leopardstown Big Top this summer include Bipolar Empire, The Original Rude Boys, The Walls, Kila, Jape, Royseven, The Minutes, Ryan Sheridan and The Sawdoctors. Support acts include The Would Be’s, Frank and Walters, The Raglans, Fred, Keywest, Dead School and The Kanyu Tree.

Also new to the race card at Live at Leopardstown is the Pandora Most Stylish competition. At each event, a panel of judges will award a €250 voucher to one lucky lady with a creative and individual style. The overall Pandora Most Stylish will be crowned on August 16th, where the finalists of the previous eight weeks will be in with a chance to win the golden prize of an additional €500 spend in a Pandora store. Pre-registration for entering the PANDORA Most Stylish competition is available on liveatleopardstown.com
