Ballyfermot warbler and X-Factor sensation Mary Byrne is set to perform at a special ceremony for The Queen’s visit to Ireland. I had really hoped I would get to not pay much attention to this visit as I don’t really see the point in the Queen coming to Ireland but how and ever Mary has forced my hand.

She will play at a special ceremony where 2000 guests have been invited to and will be held at the Dublin Convention Centre on the Docklands. Mary McAleese will be the special guest of honour and it will be held on May 19th.

Mary will be the special guest of Neil Diamond at the Aviva Stadium on Saturday June 25th so if your not one of the 2000 in attendance you can catch Mary if your a fan by heading to see the legendary Neil Diamond.
