There’s an exciting evening ahead for all the Man United fans out there, as Dublin’s brand new Aviva Stadium plays host to the Premier League stars with a kick-off against Airtricity League XI tonight. Wayne Rooney, Michael Carrick and Javier Hernandez are among the players to have been confirmed for tonight’s game, with Waterford native John O’Shea looking likely to captain the squad. This historic encounter is the first soccer clash at the brand new stadium and fans look set to flock to the ground for this evening’s 7.45 KO. The launch of the new Aviva stadium is great news for pubs, hotels and restaurants in Dublin 4, with a stadium seating capacity of 50,000 translating into a fair few pre and post match pints! And, no rest for the publicans this week, as another Dublin 4 sporting event takes place today. That’s right folks; the five-day Fáilte Ireland Dublin Horse Show has opened this morning at the RDS, Ballsbridge. This annual international event is an absolute must for equine enthusiasts, so get your glad rags on and try your luck at Ladies Day tomorrow, or drop in on Friday to watch top international show jumpers compete at the Nations Cup competition. If you haven’t managed to nab yourself tickets for tonight’s game in Aviva, you’ve got a week to beg, steal or borrow your way into the grounds for Ireland’s inaugural game at the stadium against Argentina. Tickets are still available for the 11 August clash, so why not make an evening of it and gather a few friends to watch the friendly against Carlos Bilardo's side?  Grab a bite to eat and a few pints in one of the local pubs and let Budget Bus be the Designated Dessie!
