Glen Hansard's funeral today is being livestreamed from 1.30pm for friends and fans unable to attend

Following yesterday's very moving public wake at the Irish Museum of Modern Art, Glen Hansard's funeral takes place this afternoon at St. Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin with thousands expected to attend. A public address system will relay the service to those unable to fit in to the cathedral.

Meanwhile, fans unable to be there can watch the livestream which starts at 1.30pm today. In keeping with the family's wishes, it's being described as a celebration of Glen's life and musical times.
