Brollies are not allowed!
Bruce Springsteen fans could be in for washout weather as the 73-year-old star takes to the stage in the RDS over the coming days.
Bruce and his E Street band will perform at Dublin’s RDS on Friday May 5th, Sunday May 7th and Tuesday May 9th.
The three gigs featuring Bruce and his E Street band are now sold out, according to promoters but in true Irish form, the weather is due to be miserable.
The RDS warned fans: “These are outdoor events and Ireland has its fair share of rain and cool wind, so please watch the weather forecast prior to the show days and dress accordingly.
“We are hoping the sun will come out for all the shows so if this is the case, please don’t forget your sun-cream!

“RDS Arena can get colder as the day goes on so, please dress with this in mind.
“An important tip – no one likes unhappy feet at a concert right!? So, make sure to wear comfy footwear to allow for lots of dancing”.
Despite the fact that rain is on the way, the venue clarified that no umbrellas are permitted on site.
“Umbrellas are not permitted in the venue,” the venue advises.
“In the event of adverse weather conditions, we would advise bringing a rain mac or disposable raincoat or poncho”.
Meanwhile, Met Eireann has warned that Friday will feature a “dull and damp” start with outbreaks of rain continuing to affect much of the country.
