Kellie Harrington's Semi-Final Olympic Match LIVE!

Saturday 3rd August | Diamond Park, Dublin 1 | Time 8:30pm

Admission FREE

Following on from the impressive turnout of supporters at this week's Diamond Park Screening of Kellie Harrington's spectacular victory against Angie Paola Valdes Pana in the women's 60kg quarter final at the 2024 Paris Olympics, The North East Inner City Initiative and Dublin City Council are once again hosting a free screening, to view Kellie's semi-final Olympic bout live from Paris this Saturday from 8:30pm.

Fans are invited to come together at the Dublin 1 location and show their support for the local hero as she continues her Olympic campaign at the Paris 2024 games. There will also be a screening of some short films, including Kellie's last Olympic Homecoming, immediately before the main event - so make sure to get there in plenty of time to reserve your spot and get in the mood for what's set to be an historic event in Irish sporting history!

The defending Olympic champion is currently guaranteed at least a bronze medal, but fans are willing her to go all the way and bring home the gold after she became only the fourth Irish athlete and the first Irish female athlete to win Olympic medals at two different Games in the last 96 years. Tomorrow's fight is sure to be an exciting one, as Kellie's medal will be upgraded to at least silver if she triumphs in this bout.
