Who are the guests for the St Patrick's Day Special on tonight's RTÉ Late Late Show?

The guest line-up for tonight's St Patrick's Day Special of the Late Late Show on RTÉ One has been revealed. 

As she prepares to head off to Australia with her wildly successful show Pinotphile, Joanne McNally joins Patrick in studio to chat about making history as the first Irish comedian to headline back to back 3Arena shows! She’ll reflect on riding the wave of success and explain why she’s now officially classed as superhuman.

One of Ireland’s greatest musicians, Glen Hansard, will also be on the show this week. He reflects on a remarkable career that began on the streets of Dublin and has taken him all the way to winning an Oscar.

Now back on the road again, Glen will treat the audience to a performance of one of his favourite Irish songs for the weekend that’s in it, and he’ll share why he believes Irish music remains one of Ireland’s greatest exports.

Hollywood actor, Jonathan Rhys Meyers will also be in studio this week. He'll open up about the loss of his home in the LA wildfires, and his recent move to a farm in Co. Wexford. He'll chat about how he's embracing rural life and share what’s next on the horizon as he embarks on this new chapter.

Tommy Tiernan and Mick Flannery will join the St Patrick’s Day lineup this week. They’ll chat about The House Must Win - the new musical drama written by Mick and starring Tommy - and share the story behind how the project came to life.

The pair will reflect on their shared passion for music and storytelling and Mick might even treat viewers to a tune to give audiences a taste of what they can expect from the musical.

They’ll chat about how the podcast has taken off, the revival of the Irish language and the joy they find in working together. From language, laughs and a lot of Gaeilgeoir pride, the trio promise plenty of fun in studio.

Cork poet and writer Daragh Fleming performs a specially commissioned poem about St. Patrick’s Day past and present and Irish trad group Biird take to the Late Late stage to keep the party going with their signature sound!
