Hundreds Gather At Newgrange For Winter Solstice
Hundreds are due at Newgrange in Co. Meath, hoping to catch a view of the sunlight entering and illuminating the chamber at the Neolithic passage tomb.
The annual event takes place on the 21st of December coinciding with the shortest day of the year.
The spectacle will be streamed online at 8.40am on Thursday morning.
However, as always, the Winter Solstice spectacle is dependent on the weather conditions.
We are getting very excited. Countdown is on to the Live Stream#Newgrange #NewgrangeSolstice #WinterSolstice #BrunaBoinne https://t.co/B8qaOEAFOQ
