Lockdown Ireland: Nearly 100 ravers breach Covid rules by attending large 'all-night' party near Dublin

Nearly 100 ravers broke strict Covid lockdown rules recently by attending a massive 'all-night' party near Dublin.

Footage has been circulating on social media showing the party-goers dancing the night away together inside a secret location in the Leinster area, understood to be close to the capital.

In these videos, there appeared to be no social distancing and no use of face masks at the event.

Level 3 rules state that no organised indoor gatherings can take place and those found breaching these restrictions can face as much as a €2,500 fine or a spell in prison of six months.

Tickets for the large gathering were being sold for €30 with people being added to a WhatsApp group chat for further instruction and information once their ticket was purchased.

Those attending were promised an 'all-night' rave which would start at 9pm and finish the following morning at 6am with numerous DJs providing the entertainment which was being advertised as techno and dance music.

Dublin Live has contacted Gardai about the incident.
