The Red Cross are warning tens of thousands of people travelling to the Witnness festival to take extra care over the weekend.

They are warning concertgoers to follow the basic safety guidelines to avoid any casualties.

It is expected that at least 40,000 people will make the trip to Co Meath to attend the music festival at Fairyhouse racecourse.

The Red Cross says anyone going to the event should come prepared for weather changes and bring the appropriate clothing.
