    Does anyone know of any places where there will be specials and atmosphere in any places for the Champion's League final on Wed?

    Whereabouts are you? If you want to be guaranteed a view of a large plasma screen try out the Players Lounge in Fairview. About 40 screens and a grand smoking area if it's a nice evening.

    The Woolshed off parnell square (next to cineworld) 2 20foot screens and loads and loads of smaller lcds around the place. Plus id almost say there will be as many barca fans (spanish people) there as man u fans so atmosphere should be electric as it usually is.

    Fairview is a bit out of the way. Preferably the southside city centre since it is closer to home in more ways than the mere geographical location :P

    I've decided to make a day of it with the lads;
    -Play football for the afternoon.
    -BBQ and beers before the match at one of our houses
    -Watch it whereever we have the BBQ
    -Head out

    Epic!

    Voodoo Lounge is closed.

    I think there may be another venue called VooDoo somewhere in Dublin, but I can't remember where.

    I'm pretty sure The Village/Phantom event isn't ticketed from hearing the ads for it on the radio - makes no mention of it anyway.
