The offer ends at midnight on Friday, June 7th.

A new festival is offering free tickets to Junior and Leaving Cert students.

As over 124,000 students put pen to paper this week, the people behind Kaleidoscope want to give them something to look forward to.

Organisers of the music and arts festival at Russborough Estate in Blessington, Co Wicklow have announced a free ticket for any Junior or Leaving Cert student attending with family, on a family ticket bought in the next 48 hours.
