Hot showers, a beauty salon and 100 acts at music festival

AN on-site beauty salon, cinema and hot showers are just some of the things thousands of festival-goers descending on Mitchelstown, Co Cork, can expect this weekend.

The three-day music festival is also expected to provide a major boost to the local economy with almost every hotel room in the area booked out.

It is estimated around €2 million will be spent in the area this weekend as the award-winning Indiependence Festival kicks off tomorrow.
